Green light for the German Packaging Award 2017
Showcase for innovations
“By winning the German Packaging Award, enterprises show their outstanding innovative power and make a strong statement. The trophy, certificate and winner's seal are convincing arguments when communicating with customers, consumers, partners, and for your own team,” says Dr. Bettina Horenburg, dvi Board Member and person in charge of the German Packaging Award, explaining the attractiveness of the competition.
Categories and criteria
The 10 categories of the German Packaging Award, ranging from machinery and technology, economy to logistics and material flow, each have their own fixed criteria. “The categories allow each participant to submit and promote their product more precisely,” said Dr. Horenburg. Each submission can be entered into more than one category as innovative solutions are often impressive in more than one area. Products, materials, technologies, prototypes and concepts can be submitted. “What counts is the innovative force of the product. This may be a small detail or a completely new packaging family.”
Winners’s gala with Prof. Dr. Claus Hipp
The winners of the German Packaging Award take centre stage at the award ceremony on 26 September 2017 in the Humboldt Box in front of the Berlin City Palace. Together with special guests from the industry, the winners collect their awards on the big stage. The Gold Award winners will receive additional accolades. This year, the dvi is delighted to welcome as their special guest of honour Prof. Dr. Claus Hipp, managing director of HiPP works, Entrepreneur of the Year and winner of several Orders of Merit and environmental awards. Registration for the event is through the website of the German Packaging Award at verpackungspreis.de or packagingaward.de.
