This competitive event is held to select and recognize the finest commercially produced corrugated package products manufactured between August 1, 2010 and August 1, 2012. The CorrPak® 2012 Competition is open to all corrugated manufacturers worldwide, and is held every two years. The final submission deadline will be in late August, 2012.
The CorrPak Competition is divided into two distinct classifications: Structure and Printing. Within each classification, competitors may select from a number of traditional and new competitive categories, such as product protection, self-shipper displays, counter and floor displays, flexo printing on combined brown board or white liner combined board, flexo preprinted liner, innovative use, student entry, and more. Each company location may enter more than one design per category and take advantage of reduced fees for multiple entries.
Entries in each competition category will be evaluated based on quality, design, graphic excellence, technical difficulty, and innovative applications. Judges will select first, second, and third place winners in each category as well as two Best of Show winners – one for the Structure classification and one for the Printing classification. A list of winners from the 2010 CorrPak® Competition is available online at www.tappi.org/10corrpakawards.
All entries in the CorrPak® 2012 Competition will be displayed during the 2012 Corrugated Packaging Conference & SuperCorrExpo® in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Conference attendees will have the opportunity to view all competition entries and cast their vote for the Attendee Favorite. All award winners will be announced during the Conference.
Any CorrPak® 2012 Competition entries that are submitted containing actual end-use products will be donated, as appropriate, to non-profit charitable organizations in the Atlanta, Georgia area.
