The Sussex Sign Company has become the first facility in Sussex to be named a Metamark Approved Vehicle Wrapping Centre
The Sussex Sign Company has achieved the status of a Metamark Approved Vehicle Wrapping Centre, making it the first business in the county to receive the accreditation. The award follows a comprehensive technical inspection by Metamark UK, a leading manufacturer of signmaking and vehicle wrapping media.
The accreditation serves as a formal confirmation that the company meets specific standards for installation environments, quality control, and workmanship. This places the business within a select group of manufacturer-approved wrapping centres operating across the UK.
The technical assessment was conducted by Richard Collins, global senior product markets development manager for automotive at Metamark. The inspection covered various critical operational areas, including facility layout, surface preparation, application techniques, and the correct use of Metamark automotive films. Matthew Lewis, regional sales manager at Metamark UK, formally presented the award to Colin Clark, vehicle wrapping centre manager at The Sussex Sign Company.
This achievement marks a milestone in a 25-year partnership between the two companies, which began when The Sussex Sign Company installed its first digital print hardware. Over more than two decades, the collaboration has focused on investment in premium materials and staff training as the vehicle wrapping sector has evolved.
Norman Mayhew, managing director of The Sussex Sign Company, said, “This accreditation recognises the standards our vehicle wrapping team works to every day. Metamark approval provides an additional layer of assurance for our customers and reflects our long-term commitment to using high-quality materials installed correctly. It’s an important step forward for us and reinforces the value of working closely with trusted manufacturing partners.”
Metamark automotive films are frequently specified for their colour consistency and performance. The manufacturer approval programme ensures that customers receive both high-end materials and installation methods that align with warranty expectations. The new status strengthens the technical collaboration between the two firms while providing increased confidence for fleet and branding customers across the South East.
