Sunshine Coast, Queensland print shop SunPrint has added to its already impressive array of awards by scooping  a total of nine medals in the state’s PICAs, including Gold in Regional Print Business. A huge pat on the back to owner Steve Hall, despite his modesty!

The haul includes three Golds, two Silvers and four Bronze, of which proprietor Steve Hall says: “I think this is the top tally for Queensland from any printer, even though we are just a four-person operation including part-timers!”

The winning Gold categories were:

Category 8: 123 Print!  GOLD Award - Wythes Real Estate Folder
Category 13: Labels Flyers Brochures GOLD Award - Keytruda Brochure
Category 26: Regional Small business Printer of the Year GOLD Award - Shoreline Booklet (Lend Lease) 
The full list can be seen on www.pvca.org.au

Hall is a strong supporter of graphic arts education and the environment and was awarded an honorary Senior Fellowship from the University of the Sunshine Coast in 2017 for his work with students.

“I've been around in print for 37 years,” says Hall, “and we’ve always tried to punch above our weight by offering premium quality wide format, digital and offset services as well as managed print. On the environment side, SunPrint is now powered entirely by the Sun - everything we produce in-house is printed using 100% Solar Power."

He adds: " We are really delighted to be recognised within our industry, and competing against much larger Brisbane based companies we have proven that a regional printer can provide the same if not better than the city product. We were particularly delighted to take out the “Regional category”  at all three levels, this means a lot to us. Good print work starts with great artwork, we are fortunate enough to be supplied with some great artwork from our clients, we're happy to do that justice in the execution of the various pieces."

SunPrint probably epitomises the small business engine-room enterprises of our economy, where small teams can deliver big results for brand owners. SunPrint services well-known brands far beyond the Sunshine Coast and even overseas.
