GPA Now Accepting Entries for Annual Printed Sample Contest
Chicago-based GPA announced it is accepting entries for its annual Printed Sample Contest until July 15, 2011. In its sixth year, the contest continues a tradition recognizing excellence and creativity in printing. Each year the competition grows bigger and better, yielding new and innovative examples of the opportunities available with GPA substrates.
For a printed piece to be eligible, it must be from an actual job or promotion that was printed by a GPA customer on a qualified GPA substrate within the past year. There is no entry fee, and participants are encouraged to submit as many entries as they'd like.
Entries are accepted under six different categories:
• Ultra Bak Plus & Ultra Bak Classic Pressure Sensitive Papers
• Ultra Film Non-Adhesive Films
• Ultra Film Pressure Sensitive Films
• Ultra Digital Papers
• Ultra Digital Pressure Sensitive Papers
• Ultra Digital Films
A panel of industry experts will judge each entry on design uniqueness, application use, quality of printing and complexity of production. From each of the six categories, a Best of Category winner is selected, and then from those six, one entry is chosen as the Best of Show. Winners receive a framed copy of the winning piece, a monetary or grand prize and industry recognition. This year’s winners will be announced in August.
