Deadline looms large for Pro Carton Young Designers Award

Pro Carton awards

LESS than a week remains to vote on the Pro Carton Young Designers Award as the deadline of August 23 approaches.

The competition provides students with the opportunity to gain learning experience outside the classroom, build networks, create job opportunities, and win exciting prizes.

Consumers, industry professionals, and academics are invited to submit votes here for their favourite cartonboard innovations and next-generation concepts of the year, which will determine who wins the esteemed award.

The winners will be announced at the awards gala on September 19 in Berlin during the annual ECMA Congress, with all finalists invited to the official awards ceremony.

The Pro Carton Young Designers Award shortlist was recently determined by a panel of industry experts and professionals, representative of the entire cartonboard value chain, including Satkar Giddar, Independent; Sanjeev Das, Unilever; Lotte Krekels, Carrerfour; Heidi Vanspauwen, Van Genechten; and Winfried Muehling, Pro Carton.

Winfried Muehling, Pro Carton’s marketing and communication director, commented, “The impact of the awards extends far beyond the ceremony this September. By witnessing the next generation of talent, the packaging industry is inspired to innovate and evolve. Vote now for the crème de la crème of new industry talent!”
