Hammer receives four global print competition awards

Hammer Packaging has received four 2007 Premier Print Awards for outstanding achievement in the production of labels and flexographic printing. 

Competing against more than 5,200 entries from printing and graphic arts firms around the world, Hammer Packaging received an Award of Recognition for Coca-Cola ‘Walk The Red Carpet’ Academy Awards in-mold label, and Certificates of Merit for Rose’s Mojito/Cocktail Infusions, Dasani bottled water cut and stack labels and Tavern on the Green balsamic vinegar pressure sensitive label.

Michael Makin, president and CEO of the Printing Industries of America / Graphic Arts Technical Foundation (PIA/GATF), noted: ‘Each year, the field of entries attracts impressive work from some of the best printers in the world. Only a small percentage of companies win any award. The craftsmanship and hard work of Hammer Packaging enabled them to produce an award winning piece in the face of very stiff competition.’

The PIA/GATF sponsors the Premier Print Awards. Now in its 58th year, the annual print competition promotes excellence in print communications and rewards companies and individuals who produce the best in printed media.
