Here’s what our 2026 winners have to say
It’s was a real honour and privilege to be awarded Excellence in finishing and embellishment at the 2025 Digital Labels & Packaging Awards. The entries in all categories were of an extremely high quality, so to win in that particular category was extra special.

Each year the competition and standards continue to grow and challenge us. It was an honour for the QLM Group to be nominated in five categories, representing the breadth of manufacturing for our labels and packaging, but most importantly it allows Asia Pacific to compete on a Global scale with other incredibly talented, skilled and passionate print companies. Digital continues to shine and grow each year and we cannot wait to see what we can produce for 2026.
