MELBOURNE, FL USA (May 24th, 2018) – The international Foil & Specialty Effects Association (FSEA) recently held its annual conference outside Nashville, Tennessee and three Konica Minolta JETvarnish 3D customers received a total of 11 prestigious Gold Leaf Awards for their impressive creative craft work with digital print embellishment technology from MGI.

The winning Print Service Providers (PSPs) were: Seidl Bindery, Houston, TX; DMS Color, Birmingham, AL and Print Panther, Toronto, ON. The enhanced print applications that were honored ranged from brochures, retail merchandising & point-of-sale (POS) display signage, event invitations, mailpieces, magazines, program covers and luxury packaging labels across 9 different judging categories.

The Elite Peak of Tradecraft Finishing

Kevin Abergel, MGI Vice President of Marketing & Sales, congratulated the winners by stating, “The FSEA’s annual Gold Leaf Awards program recognizes some of the most artistic and highly skilled printing achievements in our business. So, we’re very proud that the expert FSEA judges recognized that our friends at Seidl, DMS and Print Panther used the digital JETvarnish 3D process to achieve spectacular results to rival the quality of conventional analog methods used for decades.”

Digital Embossed Foiling Quality Honored

Abergel continued, “It is truly impressive to see the creative designs and expert production techniques of our customers being selected by the judges as the best in the business. Seven of the eleven winning entries that our clients received for superb quality were chosen in general application categories via direct comparison with traditional die-stamping methods of foil embossing. We believe that such results confirm the value of our digital embellishment processes to produce the highest level of decorative special effects on offset, flexo and digital print output.”

“Our mission at MGI is to help our customers show the potential of digital embellishment to transform 2D colors into 3D physical and emotional experiences – and energize the power of print for their customer communication campaigns.” concluded Abergel.
