The deadline for Sappi’s 2009/2010 North American Printers of the Year awards is February 12, 2010.
Printers can enter existing work printed between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2009 that uses a Sappi paper as the dominant stock and is printed in the U.S. or Canada.
The 10 categories include: Annual Reports, Books, Brochures, Calendars, Catalogs, Digital Print, Magazines (sheetfed), Magazines (web), Printer’s Own Promotions, or General Print (any printed material not included in the other categories).
Printers have the opportunity to win up to $20,000 in design support of their marketing initiatives for each category and to be featured in Sappi’s upcoming searchable online database for designers, printer buyers and corporations.
The competition recognizes print excellence and innovation for work produced on Sappi papers. All entries will be judged on overall impact of the piece; degree of difficulty in the printing techniques; and technical excellence.
