Flint Group Narrow Web hosts 4th Annual Narrow Web Print Awards at Labelexpo Americas

Thursday 27. March 2008 - Flint Group Narrow Web (formerly known as XSYS Print Solutions) will host the 4th Annual Print awards celebrating the excellence and entrepreneurship in the wider world of narrow web printing.

Label converters from all over the world are encouraged to submit sample labels of their choosing for evaluation by a panel of industry judges. Criteria for judging includes: registration, smoothness of dot/vignette, overall print quality, and degree of difficulty. Entries will be placed in categories relating to technology and application.
Flint Group Narrow Web awarded eight companies with awards at Labelexpo Brussels. The entries were placed in eight different categories relating to technology and application, and all were elegant examples of what’s best in the art of fine label and narrow-web print. Says Mr. Niklas Olsson, Brand Manager, Flint Group Narrow Web –
“The quality level of the entries in each category was astonishing and the judging panel had to use all their experience and skill to separate out the winning entries. In some categories we had to make a choice between two excellent print samples, and decided to honour some entries as “highly commended.”
Award winners were Smyth Companies, Inc. (USA); Consolidated Label (USA); Spear (USA); Flextec (USA); PPU Comex Sp.z.o.o., Collotype Labels (Australia); Zalesi (Czech Republic); Winson Press Private Ltd. (Singapore).
