Judging Underway for Canadian Printing Awards

Eleven industry leaders have gathered today at the Toronto Botanical Gardens to pour over more than 200 entries submitted into the 2016 Canadian Printing Awards program. Some of the world’s best printing will then be celebrated at the 11th annual gala taking place on November 10, 2016, at the Palais Royale in Toronto. The gala is expected to attract more than 200 industry leaders from across Canada, as well as attendees from the United States and Europe.

The 2016 Canadian Printing Awards judging panel will spend a full day analyzing and evaluating entries through a blind scoring system. Judges are tasked with considering issues like printing process, run length and repeatability across submitted samples. The judges will determine the top projects across more than 20 categories.

The day will conclude with a half-hour discussion and multiple rounds of voting to determine the 2016 Best of Show project.
