The Online Entry
The online entry procedure does not have to be completed in one session. You may begin the process and log out without completing everything required. Remember to SAVE your changes. You may log in again at a later date to complete the process. You may enter as many packs as you wish using the same login details.
What will you require for the On-Line Entry?
You will require the following information and items for the online entry system.
- ENTRANT’S DETAILS: The precise names and descriptions of the entry and the entry company’s name. You will need the details for the converter and the brand owner. Please be accurate with these, as this information will be used as the winner’s details for the awards
- KEY FEATURES: A VERY SHORT summary of the main features of your entry – no more than 50 words.
- MOTIVATION: A maximum of 300 words to support why your pack is a winner. The judges will be specifically looking for the excellent application and execution of anything that may involve new, innovative, or creative design, marketing, or technology applied to packaging. You must type this information into the text box provided.
- PACK VISUALS: At least 2 digital images of your pack (MINIMUM 300 dpi, width 6cm, height 5cm. MAXIMUM file size 10MB in PSD, TIFF, or JPG format). Please ensure that these are good-quality representations of your entry as they may be used for publicity purposes. Optional additional pictures may be submitted highlighting features of the pack to assist the judging process.
- ADDITIONAL SUPPORT INFORMATION: You may upload additional pictures and documents in the “additional support information” section for instance highlighting a clever opening/closing device, the difference between an empty and filled pack or detailed technical support information to substantiate claims. But note that the judges are not obligated to read or examine this section and will only do so if your entry inspires or interests them enough to do so.
