Fujifilm announces Global Innovation Print Award 2024 Winners

Fujifilm’s Innovation Print Awards are an opportunity for Fujifilm customers to showcase their creativity. What began as an internal competition seventeen years ago within the Asia-Pacific region, was launched globally for the first time this year, with the awards receiving 179 submissions from 16 countries. Today 18 winners and 13 runners up were announced globally, with six of the winners within Europe.

“The landscape of printing is undergoing a transformative shift, with digital print emerging as a powerhouse of innovation,” said Paul Callaghan^*1, Independent Judge, 2024 Global Innovation Print Award.

“The Global Innovation Print Award (GIPA) bore witness to the ascendancy of digital printing, where once perceived limitations have been shattered, and new frontiers of creativity have been unlocked. From stunning special colours to awe-inspiring designs and applications, digital print has not only closed the gap with conventional methods but has emerged as a trailblazer in its own right.” He added.

WEGNER GmbH, winner of the “Best Innovation Award 2024 Global” wowed the judges with its TWE Design Book using the Revoria Press PC1120, Jet Press 750S and Acuity Select 48. As the first winner of this award, WEGNER exemplified avant-garde design creativity by leveraging the different advantages of Fujifilm technologies, speciality colours and different paper media to produce this award-winning masterpiece. The Jet Press 750S was used to produce vibrant photo images within the book, the Revoria Press PC1120 was used to print white ink on transparent media and the Acuity Select 48 was used to print on silver metallic foil.
