Diamond Packaging recently received three awards in the 21st annual FSEA Gold Leaf Awards Competition, the industry’s premier showcase for foil stamping, embossing, and other specialty effects.

In the Beauty category, Diamond won a Bronze Leaf award in the “Best Use of Embossing” category for Five Star Fragrance Company’s Michael Jordan Flight Sport Gift Set. The carton was converted utilizing FSC-certified metallized polyester board and offset printed with transparent red, dense black, and opaque white inks, in-line with UV matte and UV high gloss coating. The UV matte spot coating on the lid provides a striking contrast to the high gloss red accents surrounding it. Diamond also won a Bronze Leaf award in the “Creative Use of Foil/Embossing on a Folding Carton” for the Gift Set.

The third award was for Diamond’s annual three-month corporate calendar, which features Diamond’s greenbox initiative.
