International E-Z UP Inc., Norco, Calif., was honored for the third year in a row at the 2015 Specialty Graphic Imaging Association (SGIA) expo in Atlanta, with Gold and Silver Award wins across multiple categories. International E-Z UP Inc. was recognized in the association’s Golden Image Competition with the Gold Award in the retail, POP display and exhibits category, and two Silver Awards in the banners and ad specialty/promotional products categories.
“We are absolutely thrilled,” said Brad Smith, president of International E-Z UP Inc. “Winning a digital printing award in the graphics industry is impressive, but to win the SGIA Gold Award three years in a row solidifies our leadership in the market and shows that E-Z UP exemplifies the very best in top-notch quality printing.”
The annual SGIA Expo, held Nov. 4 through 6, brought together leaders of the specialty imaging industry. The awards included nearly 400 entries in 53 product categories from 87 companies from around the world. The Golden Image Competition is judged on the technical accomplishments of each entry, excluding aesthetic issues from the evaluation and scoring process. Prints are judged on the level of difficulty and quality of execution.
“The judges had a very difficult time this year, not because of the sheer volume of entries, but because of the overall quality of the work,” said Johnny Shell, vice president of technical services for SGIA. “Judges in virtually every category told me the entries were so good that choosing winners was a real challenge.”
