The World Packaging Organisation (WPO), Naperville, IL, is accepting entries for the WorldStar Packaging Awards 2015 through Oct. 10. Considered the most important global packaging award, the WorldStar is based on the judges’ consensus that a pack is superior in its own right and better in its class, in execution or in innovation by comparison.
The judges will consider the following criteria: Protection and preservation of contents; ease of handling, filling, opening and closing; adequacy of information; sales appeal; graphic design; quality of production; economy of material and cost reduction; environment; ingenuity of construction; and adaption to local conditions (production, materials, market).
