PRIME AWARDS 2022

Earlier this month the Reproflex3 Middle East & Africa team attended the PRIME Awards 2022 at the iconic Habtoor Palace Hotel in Dubai.

The event is an annual celebration of packaging resource and innovations in the Middle East and Africa. It is organised by Packaging MEA Magazine and recognises excellence in design, innovation, print, sustainability and quality in packaging.

The R3 MEA team was delighted to be there to celebrate the success of two of our clients winning hotly contested categories using our ProjectBlue high-definition screening technology.

Oriental Printing Group won Gold for ‘Al Zaeem Chicken Pop’ in the Best in Class – Flexibles – Flexography Print category. They produced a stunning Roto Gravure to Flexo conversion using ProjectBlue. The award-winning entry was printed on BOPP and laminate with white PE.

Ajanta Packaging was presented with the silver award for ‘Dabur Vatika Shampoo’, which was judged Best in Class – Labels – Flexography print category. The award-winning print was on Clear PE and was also produced using ProjectBlue.

Sumit Patil, Head of Sales, Reproflex3 Middle East & Africa, said: “We had a fantastic evening at the Prime Awards. There was outstanding print and many deserving winners on the podium. I would like to congratulate Oriental Printing Group and Ajanta Packaging on their success. We feel extremely proud to have played our part in two R3 MEA clients receiving prestigious awards using ProjectBlue.”

This year’s awards are the third edition of the ceremony where more than 300 entries were submitted across seven categories. The event was attended by more than 350 industry professionals from across the MEA region and around the world.

The jury comprised senior academics and technical experts. Chief of the judging panel, Sante Conselvan, said: “We had a tough time judging the entries because the quality level has been very high.”
