The Glass Packaging Institute (GPI) has announced the launch of the 2022 Clear Choice Awards, the only awards programme which recognises North America’s top brands and manufacturers creating exceptional designs that shape dynamic consumer experiences.

The 2022 Clear Choice Awards are open to all North American glass container manufacturers and their customers.

Products introduced in the 2021 calendar year may be entered for an award in one of eight categories: Food; Non-Alcoholic Beverages; Wine; Spirits; Beer, Cider & Flavoured Alcoholic Beverages; Cosmetics, Fragrances & Pharmaceutical; Sustainability and Innovation.

The submission guidelines are on the GPI website and the deadline for entries is May 31, 2022.

An independent panel of leaders from the food and beverage media and industry, lifestyle editors and contributors, and design and packaging professionals will judge each submission on four criteria: innovation, package design, shelf impact, and how well the package tells the story of the brand or product.

“GPI is very excited to highlight those in the glass packaging industry who have presented dynamic, and thoughtful designs,” said Scott DeFife, President of GPI. “After the success of last year’s revival of the awards we’ve decided to go full steam ahead and continue with our momentum of highlighting innovators in the glass industry. We look forward to seeing this year’s submissions and to celebrating the beauty of glass packaging”
