Awards 2016
Winner of the “Sustainability Award“
For the 20th Pro Carton ECMA Award the trophies were awarded on 15.09.2016 in the festive setting of the ECMA Congress in Cannes. Among the prize winners was Schiettinger KG, the main Göppingen plant of the Schiettinger Group.
The awards were split among seven categories and three main prizes. Folding box manufacturer Schiettinger prevailed over the other finalists to clinch an award in the all-important “Sustainability” category. The company enjoyed success with their “Beam-Box” sales packaging, which was awarded the “German Packaging Award” in 2015.
The jury commented: “Beautiful, sustainable, innovative and practical to use – this triangular folding box has everything good packaging needs.” The jury was also impressed by the high recognition effect of the triangular shape of the packaging. The triangular packaging perfectly picks suits the Varta logo and thus contributes to the quick recognition of the brand at POS.
Gold for high-quality-flexo
The packaging “Majestic – Pompe de Filtration Master” made waves at the FlexoTech International Print Award 2016 in the “Corrugated Post Print (C flute)” category. The award ceremony was held in London on 13 October 2016. The jury awarded Wellpappe Auerswalde KG with a gold award.
Whitmar Publications from Great Britain organised the award. The publishing house publishes the trade journals Digital Printer, FlexoTech, Digital Labels & Packaging. The FlexoTech International Print Award is one of the most prestigious international events sponsored by leading companies in the industry. The jury considers the degree of difficulty as well as the print quality of the entries.
