10th January 2014, Starlite Printers (Far East) Pte Ltd is proud to be awarded five Singapore Packaging Star Award 2013. The winning entries are the 2013 Rice Dumpling Box, the SMF 80th Anniversary Commemorative Book Carrier, the CNY 2013 Mandarin Orange Box, the Mooncake Box and the 10th Packaging Seminar Invitation Box. All five awards are given under the Sales and Display Products category.   

Innovation is observed in each of the winning products. The CNY 2013 Mandarin Orange Box, the Rice Dumpling box and the SMF Commemorative Book Carrier have distinctive appearances. On the other hand, the Mooncake Box can be reused as a jewellery box after its content has been consumed and it incorporates a photo frame at the inner top flap. Perhaps it is because of this “Reuse” consideration as well as the user friendly design that has allowed the Mooncake Box to be awarded an AsiaStar Award on top of the Singapore Packaging Star Award.  

The 10th Packaging Seminar Invitation box introduces a locking mechanism for the drawers which is an uncommon feature for a cardboard based product. This unique feature has managed to gain recognition beyond Singapore as the box has also managed to win an AsiaStar Award as well as a WorldStar Award.
