TCPL Packaging marked its first win in the Packaging Converter of the Year (F&B) category, underscoring its reputation for excellence across diverse food and beverage applications. The entry brought together four distinct packs, each reflecting the company’s command over substrates, printing processes, and finishing innovation.
For Nutricia’s Aptamil Gold 400-g, TCPL combined gravure and offset printing on virgin board. A holographic transfer metallised film delivered the gold sheen, while matte and spot UV, embossing, and gloss highlights gave the carton a premium presence.
ITC’s Fabelle Exquisite Chocolates carton used double-sided printing on virgin board, finished with soft-touch UV varnish and hot foil in gold and pink, creating a luxury feel across front and side panels.
Nestle’s KitKat Dark Minis pack relied on reverse gravure printing on film laminate to deliver high-gloss graphics and consistent registration, ensuring brand impact at shelf.
Capital Foods’ Ching’s Secret Vegetable Momos pouch showcased rotogravure precision, achieving a photographic product shot where the delicate translucence of the dumplings was captured with clarity and depth.
The jury said TCPL’s submission “combined technical excellence with striking aesthetics,” and praised the entries for “demonstrating how process mastery can be aligned with brand storytelling.”
