Double recognition for Printpack
Printpack has been recognised by two industry associations at recent award ceremonies.
The Flexible Packaging Association (FPA) has awarded Printpack a Silver Achievement Award for Technical Innovation for its work in solving the challenge of applying photochromic ink to a flexible film. Printpack’s application allows for photochromic ink to be hidden within standard graphics and remain invisible until exposed to sunlight. The innovation provides brand owners with a new way to interact with their customer base.
Printpack has also received a Silver Award for Wide Web Flexographic Printing from the Flexographic Technical Association (FTA) at the 2016 Excellence in Flexography Awards. Winners were determined during a three-day competition where 30 judges evaluated hundreds of print samples on a wide set of criteria, including sharp images, tight registration, consistent repeats, proof-to-print matching and attention to detail.
