Gravure Association of Americas (GAA) has announced that Inland, a leader in advanced packaging and label printing, has been recognized as a 2016 Golden Cylinder Award recipient. The Golden Cylinder Awards are an annual competition with the intent to promote gravure processes while identifying the “Best of the Best” in each segment of the industry and to distinguish technical innovations.

Inland was awarded within the Packaging & Label – Paper category for their Pabst Blue Ribbon American Traditions Collection labels. Judges of the competition noted the successful execution of the campaign, which included four different label designs that were randomly distributed in every 6 pack and 12 pack using collated print processes and label press sheet randomization. Judges also commented on the quality of the images, vignettes and the color balance, as well as the parchment look and detail of the labels.

“It’s exciting to build off of previous years’ success and continue to be a Golden Cylinder recipient, shared Jackie Kuehlmann, Director of Marketing for Inland. “It speaks values to the versatility we continue to have as a company in the gravure industry and the exciting things we’re partnering with our customers on to help make their brands stand out.”
