"When I first asked the guys at Airborne to take a look at our new bar, The Elephant Wrestler, I wasn’t really expecting much more than a signage company. What the team at Airborne signs actually gave us was far more.
From fabrication, to installation the whole process was made easy by the team. When our opening deadline drew near the guys stayed on site to the wee hours making sure the place was ready for the influx of new customers.
After the initial fit-out of the bar we have asked Airborne to create a number of signs and other assorted message boards. This includes our most recent addition the Cider garden.
I would recommend Airborne to any company who wants excellent service, quality craftsmanship and a competitive price!"

Creating signage for the Elephant Wrestler.
When The Elephant Wrestler first opened its doors in Takapuna, our team was proud to deliver the signage that helped establish one of Auckland's most recognisable hospitality brands. From day one, the signage was designed to make a bold statement, creating a strong visual identity that would become synonymous with the venue for years to come.
The project focused on producing high-quality, durable signage that reflected the venue's distinctive character while attracting attention from the busy Hurstmere Road precinct. The result was a striking signage package that helped position The Elephant Wrestler as a destination for dining, entertainment and social gatherings.
