CD
Envelope Mailer
Judges’
comments: “This is an innovative
product.” One of Ward/Kraft
Inc.’s customers needed
bi-directional mailers with pockets
to hold CDs. Each mailer needed
to be sealed, opened, resealed
and reopened. Ward/Kraft created
a mailer that has a pocket for
a CD, transfer tape for sealing,
block-outs for security and a
pre-addressed return envelope.

Grand

Ward/Kraft

Fort

Multiple
Versions of Bubble Package Inserts
Judges’
comments: “If someone looks
at it for the value it provides,
it’s a clear winner. It’s
just-in-time manufacturing.”
Ward/Kraft Inc. produced packaging
materials for Cole Hersee Co.,
which manufactures on-demand electrical
switches and components. Previously,
Cole Hersee ran its package inserts
on a traditional offset press
and stored excess materials. To
avoid that, Ward/Kraft ran inserts
on its Indigo 3050 digital offset
press in quantities required by
the Cole Hersee, which also didn’t
have to pay for additional negative
or plate charges.

DigeCard
Judges’
comments: “You can put it
on a key ring and it keeps the
company’s name in front
of you. The printing quality is
great.” Jerome Group designed
and developed DigeCard, a customized
card with key fobs for its client,
Shelter Insurance. The insurance
company wanted a marketing tool
for its agents to give to customers
as a token of appreciation. At
the same time, it wanted the tool
to work as a promotional item
for prospects. Agents gave away
the cards at client meetings,
sent them with thank-you letters
and used them as “leave
behinds.” Users could reference
the cards throughout the year
and attach key fobs to key rings.
