On Thursday 10th July 2025, the Hine Labels team headed down to London to attend the Digital Labels & Packaging (DLP) Awards 2025 – a highlight of the industry calendar and a chance to celebrate innovation, creativity, and excellence in digital print.
This year was especially exciting for us, as Hine Labels were nominated for four prestigious awards:
Our journey began with a train ride into the capital, followed by a check-in to our hotel rooms to prepare for the big day. Representing Hine Labels were Paul Turner (Commercial Director), Harry Wilkinson (Business Development Manager), Rob Lucas (Studio Manager), and Bill & Anita – our previous owners, attending to say their farewells to long-time friends!
Paul was joined by Bill & Anita, who sat with our friends at SCREEN Europe, enjoying their last awards event in style. It was a fitting farewell for them, surrounded by close industry friends and partners with whom they had built relationships over the years.
Meanwhile, Harry and Rob were invited by AB Graphics to join their table – a wonderful gesture that reflects the collaborative spirit of our industry.
With four nominations across key categories, the event was a proud moment for the entire Hine team. Beyond the awards themselves, the day was filled with great conversations, industry insights, and the chance to celebrate the strength and creativity of the digital print sector.
As the evening moved onto the terrace, the sun was shining, and it proved to be the perfect setting for a symbolic moment. Over drinks and laughter, Bill & Anita passed the baton to the new generation of Hine Labels, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our business.
Although we didn’t take home the trophies this year, being shortlisted in four categories at such a prestigious event is an achievement, and we are incredibly proud. It reflects the hard work, creativity, and innovation that our team puts into every project.
We’d like to thank Digital Labels & Packaging for hosting a fantastic event, as well as SCREEN Europe and AB Graphics International for their kind hospitality. Most of all, thank you to our team and customers for your continued support as we drive Hine Labels forward into this next chapter.
The future is bright – and we’re just getting started.
