European alufoil packaging solutions that provide excellence in innovation, protection, user convenience and environmental responsibility will be rewarded with the Alufoil Trophy 2004.
Organised by the European Aluminium Foil Association (EAFA) the Alufoil Trophy awards are open to packaging designers, brand owners and retailers, as well as foil rollers, foil converters and foil container manufacturers. The closing date for entries is November 30, 2004.
Stefan Glimm, executive director, EAFA, said, “The unique characteristics aluminium foil brings to the packaging market deserve widespread recognition and with the trophies being awarded in an interpack year this gives us a great opportunity to demonstrate foil’s very distinctive benefits to a wide audience of potential users.”
Any pack using alufoil in food and drink (including pet food), pharmaceuticals, personal care and cosmetics, industrial, and sports and recreational markets can be submitted for consideration as long as it was introduced to the market after January 1, 2002 and has not been previously entered.
The judging panel will be drawn from the brand, converter and supplier communities and will assess packs for innovative content, product protection, end-user benefits, and quality of graphic design, print and finish, as well as environmental responsibility.
Trophies will be presented to winners during interpack from the EAFA stand.
To enter visit the European Aluminium Foil Association site where you will find all entry details and be able to download the entry form or fill it out online, or contact the secretariat for the documents.
