Parksons Graphics beat the competition in another close call, as they bagged the Business Magazine Printer of the Year Award. The judges were impressed by the quality of the competition. Parksons Graphics in the end won, thanks to their commitment to perfection and innovation. The judges felt that the Parksons Graphics’ entries embodied the essentials of a great business magazine and set high standards of print and finishing.

The winning entries included Verve, Forbes Life India, Box Office (anniversary issue) and The Leela magazines. The samples were printed on a four-colour Heidelberg CD74 or a four-colour Heildelberg CD102 or a combination of both these offset printing presses. A wide range of substrates like 300gsm APP Art card, 130gsm APP Gloss Art paper, 300gsm Sinar art board, 210gsm Sinar art card, 2.5mm Kappa board, 100gsm Sinar art paper and 100gsm Sunshine Super printing paper were used to produce these highly niche magazines which are aimed at a specific profession or trade.

Box Office’s anniversary issue received special praises for its use of information technology to enhance the product. Recorded chips were used with fabricational capabilities to play short videos on opening of the magazine. Apart from the innovation factor, the judges also liked the way a wide variety of post-press processes made the samples more attractive.
