The Premier Print Awards also features several sub-categories based on company size or printing process. The sub-categories based on company size are to ensure like-size companies compete with each other. Printers may also enter one piece into multiple categories or several pieces into one category. Students and student groups are also encouraged to enter. The competition is open to any students in high school, vocational school, or college who are involved in the creation or production of print communications.
All entrants are competing to be awarded the Best of Category, or “Benny” Award, for their craftsmanship. For more than 60 years, the Benny has become a universally recognized symbol for excellence in the printing industry. Entries can also receive an Award of Recognition or a Certificate of Merit. Those who receive one or more of these honours will benefit from widespread industry recognition. Winners from this year’s Premier Print Awards Competition will be honoured at the Premier Print Awards Gala Featuring the InterTech Technology Awards, September 25, 2016 in Orlando, Florida in conjunction with Graph Expo 16.
