Established over 20 years ago, the event has continually got better and better with a consistent increase in Europe-wide participation.

“Europe’s ultimate award for carton packaging provides tremendous benefits for the participating companies both in terms of positive publicity but also in the motivation it generates amongst the workforce. The competition is very tough but that’s what makes winning this award so special” said Roland Rex, President Pro Carton.

And Andreas Blaschke, President ECMA, commented: “The design, structure and functionality of the submitted solutions show what is possible with cartonboard, the most sustainable and the most future-oriented packaging material “  The awards are divided into nine different categories, with the winners of each category competing to be the overall champion. In addition, for the first time the consumer will also be able to cast their vote to select the winner of the Public Award. Also new are "Save the Planet" Award for a product that has made a significant contribution to helping the environment and the "Most Innovative" Award which will highlight new techniques being used in carton production.
