Excellence in Printing

The results of the 27th annual packagePRINTING Excellence Awards are in! A wide array of entries representing the breadth of the package-printing industry—labels, flexible packaging, folding cartons, and corrugated—again reflected the excellent work being done throughout the industry. The first place winning entries are listed below for each of the categories. Top honors go to Diamond Packaging, winning the Best of Show award for its Diamond Packaging 2013 Promotional Calendar, which the judges called “impeccable.”
