Industry confederation British Glass has decided to incorporate its established Shine Awards into the newly formed competition, the UK Packaging Industry Awards, created for 2006 by Packaging News to encompass the whole packaging industry. Launched in 2000, the Shine Awards recognised excellence in glass packaging and have been won by many top brands including Gordon“s Gin, Absolut Vodka and Hartley“s Jam and were organised by Glasspac, the packaging promotions arm of British Glass. The new UK Packaging Industry Awards will bring together the many and diverse businesses and sectors involved in the production of packaging, from designers and marketers to material suppliers, converters, processors, packer fillers and machinery manufacturers. Intended to embrace the entire packaging community, the Awards ceremony will be held on 27 September 2006 at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole. Commenting on the incorporation of the Shine Awards into the new event, David Workman, director general of British Glass said: “The Shine Awards have served as a showcase for the practical applications of new manufacturing technology, design processes and decoration systems used in the glass container industry”. “The UK Packaging Industry Awards will take them to a new level by exposing the achievements of brand owners, glass packaging designers and glass container manufacturers to a wider audience than ever”. He added: “I“m sure these new awards will become a benchmark for the whole packaging industry”.
