The entries under Brochures, Catalogues & Leaflets and Packaging & Labels categories grew more than double of last year and it demonstrated an upcoming trend and demand for short run packaging and labels. To entice customers, brands want to make their packaging more appealing. Digital print packaging is now more efficient than ever. It allows for shorter runs and just-in time delivery. There is also a lower minimum order quantity (MOQ), as the product’s lifecycle gets shorter.
“What we observed, what is trending, and what we noticed this past year — digital packaging in the competition has taken hold and was one our most important categories that we judged,” he said. Paul Callaghan*1IPA 2022 head judge. “In reality, we had two sub-categories: Rigid Packaging, and Carton Packaging. Digital packaging is not lagging, and I can assure that it has advanced.

Limited Edition Hong Kong.
