Global Award for Sustainability

The NANOCLEANER NWC-1200 was nominated by the jury for this year’s Innovation Award Global Award for Sustainability. The final winner was announced on the evening of 24 September in Brussels, on the first day of the Labelexpo 2013. Finally Avery Dennison has won the award. NANOVIS shared the briliant second place with Spear Europe. The sustainability award was for a specific sustainable product or process by a supplier/converter company in the label industry introduced during 2012. This can refer to either a product (for example a new press, ink or substrate) or a process (new methods of working in a more sustainable way).

Judges were looking for a company that had introduced a specific product or process and maintained the most sustainable and environmentally acceptable working practices into their purchasing and manufacturing operations and can demonstrate key materials, production and performance or consumer benefits. The award was handed over at a gala dinner at Labelexpo 2013.
