This year the awards were split into six design and six print categories, with an overall winner for each. All the entries had to be produced using papers from the Antalis range.
Antalis marketing director Ian Webb lauded the “exceptional work being done” in both design and print.
“We hope that by recognising some of these stand-out projects and sharing this work with the wider industry it will serve as inspiration for the current and upcoming generations of designers and printers alike,” he said.

The merchant also used the event to preview the second edition of the Paper Book swatch book for ArjoWiggins creative papers, including the expanded Keaykolour range which now comes in 48 colours. The new edition comes in a handy ‘brick’ format and features NFC functionality using PowerCoat Alive, which allows RFID technology to be sandwiched inbetween two sheets of creative papers.
