The Brief
Bounce Around the Barossa required practical event signage to guide attendees and create a consistent branded experience. The brief called for a lower-impact approach that considered what happened to signage materials after the event, rather than treating every component as single-use.
Signs SA developed a signage system combining recycled or recyclable corflute options with reusable display frames, helping balance event requirements with opportunities for material recovery and reuse.
The Challenge
Event signage needs to be durable, practical to install and suitable for outdoor conditions, while also meeting budget and branding requirements.
The challenge was to consider these practical demands alongside end-of-use recovery, creating a system that event teams could manage efficiently without unnecessarily replacing every component after use.
The Solution
Signs SA approached the project with a focus on material selection and reusability. Compatible signage materials were selected to work with reusable display frames, allowing individual components to be replaced or recycled more efficiently where suitable.
This approach supported the event’s branding and wayfinding needs while considering the full lifecycle of the signage.
Material Selection
Recycled and recyclable corflute options were incorporated alongside reusable display frames, providing a practical approach to temporary event signage.
By separating the printed signage from the reusable structure, the system allowed for greater flexibility when graphics needed to be updated, while creating opportunities to recover suitable materials at the end of their use.
Production and Preparation
Signs SA coordinated the signage components around the selected materials and reusable framing system.
The focus was on delivering signage that remained practical for event teams to handle, supported clear attendee navigation and maintained a consistent visual presentation throughout the event.
Reuse and Recovery
The signage system was designed to support reuse where practical, with replaceable components and consideration for recycling suitable materials.
Rather than assuming every element would need to be discarded after the event, the approach considered how frames could be retained and signage components recovered or replaced more efficiently.
The Outcome
Bounce Around the Barossa received an event signage approach that balanced practical branding and wayfinding requirements with a stronger focus on material reuse and recovery.
By combining recycled or recyclable signage options with reusable frames, Signs SA demonstrated how event signage can be planned with end-of-use considerations built into the system from the outset.
What This Project Demonstrates
More sustainable event signage starts with thoughtful material selection and planning for what happens after an event concludes.
This project highlights Signs SA and EnviroEdge’s approach to considering recycled and recyclable materials, reusable structures and practical recovery options when developing signage solutions for events.
