Since 1 January, interested companies can once again apply for the "Product Innovation in Glass" award. In this year's International Year of Glass, the Glass Packaging Action Forum is once again honouring innovative products packaged in glass from the food and beverage industry with this established award. The application phase ends on 31 May 2022.
The Glass packaging action forum invites companies from the food and beverage bottling and manufacturing industry to apply for the "Product Innovation in Glass" award for the ninth time this year. The requirements: The product must be packaged in glass and should have been sold on the German market for the first time between 1 May 2021 and 30 April 2022. Participation - even with multiple submissions per company - is free of charge, as is communication about the nomination or award and the use of the logo. The registration form, the conditions of participation and the deadlines can be found at here.
The "Product Innovation in Glass" is divided into the categories "Small Companies", "Medium and Large Companies" and "Public Favourite". Small companies" are companies with up to 50 employees, while "Medium and large companies" are companies with 51 or more employees. An independent jury of experts will evaluate the applications after the end of the submission phase, nominate the three best products in each of the categories "Small companies" and "Medium and large companies" and select the winners. The winner of the "Audience Favourite" category is chosen by visitors to Trend Day Glass - the glass container industry event for decision-makers from marketing, retail and purchasing.
"We are delighted to be able to announce the 'Product Innovation in Glass' for the ninth time this year - and in the International Year of Glass," says Dr Johann Overath, Managing Director of the Bundesverband Glasindustrie e. V. and spokesperson for the Glass Packaging Action Forum. "The award has become established over the years and is an integral part of our work. We are delighted that the spirit of innovation in the food and beverage industry is unbroken and that we receive great new submissions in glass every year - hopefully also in 2022."
