Whilst the origins of the Paper Gold Medal were clearly focused on the paper manufacturing sector, the Award has now become more inclusive and today is open to nominations from the wide range of print, paper and allied industries which encompass an ever increasing number of sectors and specialisms which supply an amazing range of materials including newspapers and magazines, direct mail and catalogues, envelopes and stationery, retail and transport packaging, bags and tissues. In fact, products too numerous to mention!

With a UK turnover estimated at over £20billion and more than 150,000 employees in 9,500 companies, the paper and print sector is an important UK economic contributor and employer. Our industry makes a big difference to the country and, by means of the Gold Medal, we aim to further encourage and recognise those who, by their exceptional contribution, ensure that our industry is recognised for its achievements.

The Paper Gold Medal is now the ultimate Industry Award and is announced as the final Award at the Confederation of Paper Industries new annual ‘Paper Industry Gold Awards’.
