Great news for Amberley, who have been pushing new ideas, particularly in digital labels, for some time. I have to say though that there are too many companies who are happy to let their suppliers control their image by sending out press releases on their behalf – HP is a great company, but WHY didn’t Amberley produce this one themselves? Are they shy? (Martin)

HP today announced that Amberley Labels, of Blandford, Dorset, has achieved three important milestones in its development as a leading digital label converter: winning a FINAT Award, the nomination for entry in the World Label Awards Association and the installation of an HP Indigo WS6000 Digital Press.Amberley won the ‘Marketing and End-use applications’ category in the 2009 FINAT Awards, for a ‘no label look’ label produced for luxury brand Fortnum & Mason Still Blenheim Palace Natural Mineral Water. The award was presented at a ceremony in Brussels during Labelexpo Europe. The label was produced using Amberley’s HP Indigo press ws4050. Following this success the label has also been selected for entry in the World Label Awards Association WLAA.
