Packaging group Smurfit Kappa’s Irish operations recently received three accolades in one week at the Irish Print Awards and the Checkout National Retail Supplier Awards.
The wins include a Best Packaging/Design Services Provider award for work with Greene Farm Foods, Screen Printer of the Year for a creation for Largo Foods and National Newspaper Printer of the Year for its work with the Financial Times.
At the Checkout National Retail Supplier Awards, Smurfit Kappa Dublin saw success with a truly innovative SRP transport case solution which optimised logistics, reduced costs and increased visibility for its customer Greene Farm Foods. Greene Farm achieved a total reduction in packaging costs of 20 per cent, as well as reducing overseas imports through local production.
The team at Smurfit Kappa Display were honoured at the National Print Awards for the Largo Foods Tayto Ibiza Impulse display unit, which, through focus on innovation and design, increased product visibility at point-of-sale.
Also at the National Print Awards, Smurfit Kappa News Press was awarded National Newspaper Printer of the Year for its entry with the Financial Times. Smurfit Kappa News Press works closely with the Financial Times to deliver a product that upholds the high quality of the prestigious newspaper.
John O’Loughlin, CEO Smurfit Kappa Ireland, said, 'It’s an honour to achieve these three awards on our home turf and one that the teams involved are truly proud of. At Smurfit Kappa we have an unrivalled portfolio of unique tools, combined with creative thinking and expertise, enabling us to support our customers’ business success.
