QLM Label Makers Group has been named a grand prize winner in the labels category while also winning eight other awards at this year’s HP Indigo Print Excellence Awards – Asia Pacific and Japan.
The Australian headquartered company’s work to produce over 1000 unique label designs for the Pukara Estate Mosaic Series earned it the grand prize in labels fending off stiff competition from across the Asia Pacific and Japan region.
In total the company won nine awards with winners coming from countries including Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam.
Brand owners Steve and Racquel Goodchild attended the ceremony in Dongguan, China to receive the award along with representatives from QLM Label Makers Australia and Hoang Ha Label Co Ltd (a member of the QLM Group) in Vietnam.
The awards were held as part of the Print China Exhibition which featured over 800 of the region's premier digital print companies in labels and packaging.
QLM Group marketing manager Lindsay Nutley said, "We are both humbled and honoured that the QLM Group has won so many awards this year. We have been working hard with our digital platforms in all countries to achieve truly effective market outcomes for clients. These awards reflect both amazing print quality but also labels that achieve results in the market place. By working together as a group we have been able to see some really DIGI WOW outcomes."
