AWA Sleeve Label Awards open for entries

The annual competition recognizes outstanding contributions to sleeve labelling.

Alexander Watson Associates AWA, a packaging and labeling market intelligence firm, has opened entries for its annual AWA Sleeve Labels Awards. The entries remain open until the end of August.

Entries are now being accepted for the 2024 AWA International Sleeve Label Awards, a competition that has, for the last eight years, documented the innovative achievements that sleeve labeling has brought to today’s packaging industry annually.

Entries will be accepted from printers, converters as well as brand owners and end users which demonstrate quality and originality in the design, production, and end-use of all types of sleeve label.

Judged by a panel of industry experts, the AWA International Sleeve Label Awards feature four main categories – heat shrink TD sleeve labels; roll-fed MD shrink sleeves; stretch sleeves; and a special category recognizing a notable environmental/sustainability contribution. The judges may also award a ‘best in show’ trophy at their discretion.

AWA’s website features details of the 2024 competition, including the entry form, which potential participants can access online. Entries are open until August 31, 2024.

The winners of the AWA International Sleeve Label Awards will be presented at the AWA International Sleeve Label Conference & Exhibition 2024, which will take place in October in Miami, US.
