24th DuPont Packaging Awards calls for entries

The call for entries for the 2012 DuPont Packaging Awards is now underway.

Open to brand owners, packaging designers, converters and manufacturers around the world, the DuPont Packaging Awards is the industry's longest running, independently judged global packaging awards program honoring packaging materials, processes, technology and service innovations. All entries will be judged by an independent prestigious panel of international jurors led by Brian Wagner, Vice President, PTIS (a HAVI Global Solutions Direct Company) based on a set of criteria including delivering innovative, cost-savings solutions and sustainability ideas to the global packaging industry.

Only commercial products, technologies and processes are eligible and the deadline to register is February 24, 2012.

DuPont says that winners will be announced next May during the DuPont Packaging Exchange, a free, global online event that offers participants the opportunity to interact with key leaders of the packaging industry.
