The awards will recognise companies and individuals designing innovative packaging and processing materials and solutions, packaging and machinery/equipment within the food, beverage, health, beauty and wellness and domestic and household markets.
In addition there will be two special company awards (Sustainable Packaging & Processing and Save Food Packaging & Processing) and three individual awards (Young Packaging & Processing Professional of the Year, Industry Packaging & Processing Professional of the Year and The APPMA Scholarship).
The PIDA Awards are the only award program in Australia to provide a pathway into the prestigious WorldStar Packaging Awards.
