Mail Order Solutions (I) and Vishwakala Printers bag this year’s Direct Mail Printer of the Year Award in a competition which remained neck-to-neck throughout. The entries of Mail Order Solutions included acquisition mailing for FRSA, acquisition mailing for MDM, pop-up New Year card with book for Prime Focus and Vadodara direct mailer for Shopper’s Stop. The samples were printed in CMYK using an SM 74 Heidelberg press with plates created using Kodak Trendsetter 400 III Quantum. The jury members were particularly impressed by the pop-up New Year card with box, which according to MOS, was a challenging job.

Mail Order Solutions (I), with 16 years of experience with both domestic and international clients, is one of the few service providers who specialise in handling printing needs from start to finish. This includes a fully integrated, digitalised print production facility with specialists manning every stage of operations: creatives, pre-press, digitalised printing, offset printing, binding, fabrication solutions, dispatch, and logistics. MOS has recently acquired new equipment across the board in order to maintain its growth numbers.
