The Digital Printer Awards 2025 took place yesterday at the InterContinental London Park Lane, bringing together printers, suppliers, and industry leaders to celebrate another exceptional year of innovation and achievement across the digital print sector.
The winners of the Digital Printer Awards 2025
Hosted by Sky Sports presenter and football pundit, David Jones, with awards presented alongside Digital Printer commercial director Kelly Morris, the afternoon highlighted the breadth of creativity and technical capability across the industry. The event opened with a welcome speech from Digital Printer editor Chris Brock, who reflected on print’s unique role as a medium that “connects us, allows us to reach each other,” and stands at the intersection of craft, communication, and innovation.
Mr Brock also acknowledged the expertise of this year’s judging panel, thanking Mark Scammel (Nutshell Creative), Matt Ford (GF Smith), Jon Harper Smith (Smithers), and Paul Brough (independent consultant), along with specialist judges, Lucy Shephard (Warburtons) and Chloe Ward and Chris Brock (Whitmar/Digital Printer Magazine) for the Future Star and Women of Impact categories. He extended thanks to the event’s bronze, silver and Supreme sponsors for making the awards possible.
Across 15 categories and the overall Supreme award, judges commented on the consistently high standard of entries, noting standout examples of innovation, production quality, design thinking, and commercial impact. Work ranged from intricately executed books and refined marketing collateral, to high-impact packaging, labels, substrates and wide-format applications.
Pureprint Group, Impress Print Services, Gavin Martin Colournet, and Ripe Digital were among the most recognised companies of the afternoon, while two new categories – Future Star and Women of Impact – highlighted emerging talent and outstanding leadership within the industry.
The event concluded with networking and celebrations, with all the award winners invited to the stage for photographs.
