We wanted to pick the work that our customers thought was most demanding from a creative frame of reference; also work that delighted our customers; work that was of international standard; work that brought into play much of the advanced Photoshop tools; and finally work that conformed to the printers and specialized print profiles used by our customers. We made the right pick that paid off."

Gurumoorthy added, "From a business level, the PrintWeek India Award has furthered our confidence and commitment to the services we render to our clients, and the same was endorsed in writing by our clients. There has also been that stimulus created now which has got clients wanting to engage more with us to provide for them print and print-to-digital solutions. At a production level, clients have said they are reassured of our processes encircling quality and production management and that they are renewed in confidence about seeing the best-in-class premedia work delivered to them continually.
