In-Print Awards contest judging took place March 18, 2019 at IPMA Headquartes by a panel of experts. So many outstanding entries showcasing how our industry excels! Gold, Silver and Bronze awards in over 30 categories were selected after a full day of intense scrutiny from outstanding entries in all categories. The Best of Show winners in offset and non-offset were selected from the Gold winners. The winners’ names will be revealed at the awards dinner during IPMA’s conference, taking place in June 2-4, 2019 in Louisville, KY. Can’t wait to see them all!
In picking the award winners, judges take into consideration the complexity of the entry, level of difficulty required to produce job, and often refer to the entry forms to see what type of equipment was utilized. (i.e. A four-color job printed on a single-color press might outweigh a similar job printed on a four-color press.) On the other hand, some jobs with excellent printing, failed to win prizes due to poor stitching.
