| Epson Wins WorldStar Award |
|
"As part of Epson's ongoing commitment to improving the environment and reducing its carbon footprint, our packaging system for large format ink cartridges was simplified two years ago," Epson's Business Solutions Manager, CraigHeckenberg, said.
"By adopting an internationally standardised package design using 100 percent recycled paper boxes, partially printed in monochrome, and making the boxes identifiable by affixing labels printed with product details, Epson contributed to lowering its environmental impact while cutting costs at the same time," Mr Heckenberg said.
As the pre-eminent international packaging award, WorldStar Awards are presented only to packages which have won recognition in a domestic or international competition. Epson's standardised packaging became eligible for consideration after receiving an Electric Equipment Packaging Category Award at the Japan Packaging Contest 2007 (sponsored by the Japan Packaging Institute). |
Epson has
been awarded a prestigious WorldStar Award in the Electronics Category for its
globally standardised packaging for printer ink cartridges. Sponsored by the
World Packaging Organisation, WorldStar 2007 winners were selected by an expert
panel of judges meeting in Athens, Greece.
