Judges Comments:

"This is just an amazing screen creation. Stunning, beautiful, perfect. Outstanding we cannot find a fault! Registration is absolutely perfect. Screen printing has been done this way for 70 years and Portia just stood out from everything else in its category. Each colour has been overlaid separately to produce the perfect print. The finished product is just real art; the skin tone is perfect, as are the wisps of hair on the girl’s arms and face, all of which were all in perfect registration. It’s very hard and very skilful to get this sort of detail right. It’s so good to see craftsmanship like this today."

Judges Comments:

"An excellent print job. A visually attractive Honey label that just stood out from most of the entries. Showcasing the New Zealand grown and bottled honey, the label was digitally printed in a wrap-around design that added visual impact. Good use of foil and high build.  A great job using a clever technique to create a gold foil look with digital print."

Judges Comments:

"Awesome print quality, vibrant colours and totally fit for purpose. To get the Tiffany blue colour correct with the CMYK colour pallet was difficult in itself, but to get it so that it was flawless, meant that it had to be exactly right at the prepress stage. In a year of quite ‘safe’ entries into this section of print, finding something that stood out from the crowd, in this case, was not difficult from the first moment we saw it."

Judges Comments:

"A perfectly printed presentation folder for Ora King Salmon with many embellishments and a pocket that matched the backing sheet exactly. The job was awesome throughout. Nice clear emboss. A beautiful job and brilliant print! With so many embellishments on this folder there were many things that could have gone wrong – but nothing had. A superb piece of promotional printing that stood out from the others."
