TLMI Announces Eugene Singer and World Label Association Award Winners

March 2008
NAPERVILLE, Ill.—The Tag and Label Manufacturers Institute (TLMI) recently announced the winners of its prestigious Eugene Singer Award for Management Excellence. One of TLMI’s highest honors, this award recognizes excellence in business management measured and defined by an established set of growth and profitability ratios through the TLMI Management Ratio Study.

The Singer Award is given annually to four label-converting companies; each company within a certain sales range category. The 2007 TLMI Eugene Singer Awards were given to the following North American narrow-web converting companies:

• Fountain Valley, CA-based Coast Label Company won for the small company category. This is Coast Label’s first TLMI Eugene Singer Award.

• Lenexa, KS-based SpectraGraphics, Inc. won for the mid-range category. This is SpectraGraphics’ first TLMI Eugene Singer Award.

• Longwood, FL-based Consolidated Label won for the medium company category. This is Consolidated Label’s sixth consecutive TLMI Eugene Singer Award and the company’s fourth time winning in the medium company category.

• DePere, WI-based Belmark, Inc. won for the large company category. This is Belmark’s tenth TLMI Eugene Singer Award.

TLMI President, Frank Sablone, commented, “TLMI would like to congratulate this year’s Eugene Singer Award Winners. As an industry association our central mission is to constantly deliver value back to our members; and the TLMI Management Ratio Study continues to be a benchmarking vehicle that does just that. Participation in the Ratio Study was greater this past year than ever and remains to be one of the greatest management and strategic planning tools in our industry.”

In addition, TLMI also announced ten of the association’s label-converter members have won first-place and/or honorable mention awards in the World Label Association Awards Competition. The awards were formally presented at the recent TLMI Converter Meeting in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

In its eighteenth year, the winners of the World Label Association Awards Competition are chosen from a group comprised of first-place winners from association label competitions around the globe including TLMI, the Japanese Label Foundation (JFLP), FINAT, and the Australian Label Association (LATMA). Label samples from companies are judged against each other in a variety of categories to determine the ‘World’s Best Labels.’

TLMI converter member first-place award winners and their label product names are as follows:

• Mid Atlantic Label, Inc. won for its ‘Neiman Marcus Butterfly Water Bottle’ label and Snyder’s ‘Hoops Frenzy’ label

• Taylor Made Labels Inc. won for its ‘Symbion Wine’ label
