JUDGES’ THOUGHTS


“It was great to be asked to be a judge and it was great to see various packaging formats, materials and decorations across multiple categories. “A mixed bag really. Some great ideas and some not so good.” Craig Davids, Beauty Packaging Team Manager, Boots


“It’s great to see this year’s developments in packaging and it’s a pleasure to be able to contribute to this important work recognizing the efforts of our industry. “There are great entries in every category and it’s fantastic to see the results of the


innovation and hard work by the entrants.” SamSheppard Fidler, BusinessManager, Smithers Pira


“Both the increased level and quality of the entries this year reinforced for me why Starpack remains the coveted award for industry and as well as attracting new entries following the addition of new categories.We also welcomed some new expert judges


aboard. When you work in the fast moving pace of the packaging industry it's often hard to take the time out to value the level of effort involved in taking a product from concept to market but our judging panel did exactly this, and were able to see the importance of even the smallest of details that go into identifying those entries truly deserving of the "award for excellence. For me the Greenstar and Technical Innovation categories


opened up the competition to a wider audience and showed us that sometimes it can be the difference between taking a great idea and just making it better, be this through increasing the environmental considerations or a new process that enhances the product, or even the removal of a process all together. We look forward to welcoming schools, students and industry


to come together in a combined event to celebrate our industry's finest, and extend our thanks to all who continue to support Starpack.” EmmaWise, Chair for the Starpack Advisory Group and Business DevelopmentManager for Plastique Limited
