Century Marketing Receives Award in HP Digital Labels & Packaging Contest
Century Marketing received the 2nd place award in the 2009 HP Digital Labels & Packaging Awards Contest in the category of Alcoholic Beverages. Century chose to submit a label they printed for a customer’s Bohemian Spiced Whisky bottle. This label, featuring a brightly colored bird with distinctly colored feathers on a dark matte background, presented a number of challenges for the Century team, but their ability to successfully overcome these obstacles yielded an award-winning submission.
When the digital printing team at Century Marketing took on the Bohemian Spiced Whisky project, they researched and acquired a new base material, ordered a custom die to accentuate the size of the whiskey bottle, and brought in a new copper foil hot stamp material to highlight the richness of the whiskey. They printed the label on their ws4050 HP Indigo press and then printed it again on the Rapid RP80 Hot Stamp press for shiny foil highlights.
Formal announcement of the HP Digital Labels & Packaging Award Contest was made at LabelExpo Europe 2009 in Brussels, Belgium. A representative of HP presented the award to Century Marketing on December 10, 2009.
