Printcare Plc Director Krishna Ravindran holding aloft the Master Printer award
The Sri Lanka print community gathered on 27 October for its highly anticipated print exhibition and awards night, displaying an exceptional level of printing quality that has garnered recognition on the global stage.
Printcare Plc, a leading player and exporter of world-class packaging, emerged by far the night›s biggest winner, securing 24 medals for its world-class products, including the coveted Master Printer award. Others who did well were Softwave Printing and Packaging with 14 medals and Austriya Printers with 6 medals.
The event highlighted the impressive array of high-quality products from participants, demonstrating that Sri Lanka›s print industry has achieved a remarkable degree of high proficiency.
Sri Lanka Printers’ Association President, Anil Kariyawasam, complimenting the winners said: “We are delighted to witness the incredible talent and dedication of the Sri Lanka print community at this year›s exhibition and awards night. The quality of printing of international standards on display is a testament to the industry›s progress. Here is clear evidence of how far we have developed the industry which today employs over 300,000 in 4,000 printing presses across the country.”
He reiterated the importance of the need for the Government to encourage the domestic printing sector to meet its entire range of needs and minimise any reliance on overseas suppliers. A case in point was the controversy on the import of security labels when there was adequate proficiency available within the country.
The annual exhibition and awards night provided a platform for industry professionals, experts, and enthusiasts to exchange ideas, showcase their capabilities, and celebrate their achievements.
