3 MESSAGE FROM
OUR SPONSORS
It has been a delight for MJ Flood to sponsor this year’s Irish Print Awards for the first time. This prestigious and much anticipated event recognises the talent and hard work of the designers and printers in Ireland. The pace of change in our industry has been a challenge for all of us here tonight. Those of you who have been nominated for awards this evening have seen these challenges as opportunities to differentiate yourselves from your competitors and keep one step ahead of the chasing pack. Similarly MJ Flood has sought to stay ahead of the competition with innovative products and highly professional people to deliver these products and services. Good luck to all the finalists tonight and I hope you all have a great evening.

4 MESSAGE FROM
OUR EDITOR Welcome to the 39th Irish Print Awards in association with MJ Flood. Ashville Media Group is delighted to host the Irish Print Awards for the fourth successive year here in the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Santry, Dublin, where we are looking forward to a night of celebration and entertainment. Tonight we will be revealing the deserving winners across the Irish Print Awards’ 21 categories, and our ceremony will culminate with the announcement of the Printer of the Year 2016 award winner. Our expert panel includes long-standing and distinguished members who have provided a valuable service to the Irish Print Awards over the decades - IPA Chairman Freddie Snowe, Dublin Institute of Technology's Andrew Horan and Louise Reddy, Ian Cairns of Belfast Metropolitan College, Keith Redmond from Flint Group Ireland, David Mahon, Managing Director of Evad IT Solutions, and Darren Finn of Flexographic Plate Plan Ltd - as well as more recent additions such as John Charnock of the UK-based Print Research International, and Gerry Ross, formerly of Robert Horne, who is well-known to industry practitioners. Our judges were extremely impressed with the exceptional quality of this year’s finalists. Deciding on the shortlist, and on the eventual winners, was a tough task. We would like to thank all of our sponsors for their continued support for the Irish Print Awards: Neopost, Swan Paper, Agfa, GPMI Reprocentre, Réalt Paper, Close Brothers Commercial Finance, Heidelberg, IBS, a Xerox Company, Canon, Avery Dennison, Sun Chemical, Manroland, Komori & Portman Graphic, Antalis, Alphagraphics & Bottcher Systems, the Irish Printing Federation, HP and, of course, our headline sponsor MJ Flood. And, of course, our longstanding media partners and the Sunday Business Post. We would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate every business that has made it to the category shortlists. We wish you the best of luck in advance of tonight’s award ceremony and we hope that all of our guests have an enjoyable and memorable experience. Maev Martin Editor, Irish Printer

ARE YOU A STAR OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT?
The Green Star System provides a credible definition of what is an eco-responsible paper. The system is based on the combination of two main elements - the sourcing of raw materials and its manufacturing process. The definition established by Antalis aims to be simple to understand, easy to trust, stringent in terms of its requirements and based on internationally recognised standards. To be a 5-star paper, it must be awarded both the EU Ecolabel and be made from 100% recycled post-consumption or at least 50% recycled minimum (but the virgin fibre must be FSCÂŽ or PEFC certified). 5 star papers include: Cocoon, Cyclus, Digigreen, Image Recycled and Xerox Recycled Supreme. Learn more at antalis.ie or call 01 876 3188.
