In addition to esteemed recognition, judges will select one Printer of the Year among 10 of this year's Gold Award winning finalists to receive up to $20,000 in design support and 5,000 lb. of paper towards marketing and brand initiatives. Gold Award winners chosen from each category will receive 5,000 lb. of paper and be automatically entered as finalists in the Printer of the Year contest. Five Silver Award winners are chosen in each of the 10 categories and will receive a framed certificate for themselves and their clients. All winners will also gain increased visibility with current and potential clients by being featured on their own page in Sappi's Printer of the Year Online Resource, a database tool for designers, print buyers, and corporations.
"As the ways people communicate continue to evolve, the key elements that make the best printing—precision, craftsmanship, and pride—are as strong now as they ever have been," said Patti Groh, director of marketing communications. "This is why we have revitalized this year's format to continue celebrating the power and versatility of print in today's marketplace."
All entries for Sappi's 2014 North American Printer of the Year Awards must be received by April 2, 2014. Entering the competition is easy — printers can submit any work printed in the U.S. or Canada between Jan. 1, 2013 and Dec. 31, 2013 that uses Sappi paper as the dominant stock. For each entry, six copies of the printed piece must be submitted by mail along with one copy of the entry form.
More details and the entry form (an online version or downloadable PDF version) are available online.
