Revolutionising Sign Production: CWT Applicator Tables at Computaleta

Sign companies across New Zealand are already realising the benefits of CWT Worktools applicator tables—none more so than Osmand Signs in central Auckland.

A recently installed CWT Worktools table has had a measurable impact on their operations. Managing Director Wade Blow shared:

“The CWT has been a game changer for our business. It is such a time-saver. Whereas previously it would take 15–20 minutes to applicate a large 1.5 x 3m board, it now takes one guy five minutes. It also turns a two-person job into a one-person task and there is no wastage when laminating. The team love it.”

 

Wade’s experience highlights what many in the industry are discovering: CWT applicator tables increase output, reduce material waste, and free up valuable labour resources—all while delivering bubble-free, high-quality results.
