SCA Packaging Germany one of the winners of the prestigious DuPoint Grand Prix Cyrel

The DuPont Grand Prix Cyrel honours top designs that are printed in a magnificent way.

With their designs for the whisky brand Ballentine’s of the Pernod Group and for the Hybrid Power grass mower from Wolf Garten SCA Packaging Germany managed to impress the jury with their flexo pre-print.

The best flexo print players participate in this contest so it was an honour for SCA Packaging Germany to be awarded for its outstanding quality in pre-press, production of printing plates and flexo pre-printing. The criteria design, reproduction and printing were decisive to the Jury’s decision. SCA was awarded second place for the graphic design of the highly finished spirituous beverages packaging for Ballentine’s of Pernod and with third place in the category ‘corrugated pre-print’ for the large size non food packaging for Wolf Garten.

“Our Fulda site is one of Europe’s pioneers when it comes to large size flexo pre-print. We need to guarantee success for our customers and therefore we need to use modern print technologies which allow us to produce brand designs of the highest quality,” says Carolyn Wagner, Sales & Marketing Director Germany & Switzerland, “it is a great recognition for us to be awarded with this renowned award twice.” Our print perfection is a result of the optimal cooperation between SCA Pre-Press Services, SCA Packaging Germany’s pre-press specialist, and SCA Packaging Fulda GmbH, who printed and produced the packaging.”

The ‘Grand Prix Cyrel’ was already established by the DuPont Packaging Graphics division back in 1982. Ever since, the 8 previous editions contributed to the strong reputation of this award within the flexo and packaging industry. With a growing focus on consumer experience, the importance of high quality printing has increased during the  last couple of years, as confirmed by DuPont’s Sales Manager Central & Northern Europe Wilfried Schumacher.
