Graphix Supply World (GSW) announced the Rigid Paper Board Challenge winner after the competition entries were judged at FESPA Africa (2-4 July 2014, Johannesburg) held at the Gallagher Convention Centre. This year’s Rigid Paper Board Challenge first place went to Grosvenor Branding Solutions (GBS). Swift Displays were placed second and Shereno printers came in third place.
Graham Hawthorn, director at GBS said, ‘We are delighted with the first prize result yet again. It really was a great GBS team effort from design, print production, execution and it was for a good cause. We are particularly proud to have donated the 3D Rhino to the Mark Boucher Conservation, in conjunction with Castle Lager (SAB ) to create awareness of the plight of rhinos in Africa. The Rhino was designed with our new 3D modelling software, manufactured using Re-board material and was printed with UV VOC-free inks.’
The Rigid Paper Board Challenge is sponsored by Esko, Fujifilm and Re-board and recognises excellence in point-of-purchase displays, in-store communication, and other imaginative displays using rigid paper board.
