The brief for this job, the printer reported, was to produce a compact label that would give the new organic product a classy feel, and it was AJS's use of seven inks, three varnishes, a pattern matt varnish for a luxury feel, white silk for the fine text, and the operator's careful handling of 357 green, which was described as "an unforgiving colour to work with", that really set the printer apart from the crowd.
One judge commented: "This was an outstanding label as the fine print and vignettes worked very well with a complex and tiny label." Also scoring highly for AJS were the company's Body Shop Dream Unlimited body lotion, Unilever VO5 Miracle Concentrate and Revive Shower Gel labels.
