This label doesn’t stay on the shelf. It catches the eye, tells a story, and protects.

At 𝗣𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗧 𝗗𝗜𝗚𝗜𝗧𝗔𝗟 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗩𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 in Düsseldorf on June 16 and 17, we will show how a label can do more than decorate. It can create attention at the POS, communicate value, support product authentication and connect consumers with digital product information.

Our highlight project is the PDC Edition Wine and Sparkling Wine Labels under the motto ‘“PRINT protects brands.’”

Together with the brands KURZ SCRIBOS, KURZ Digital Solutions GmbH & Co. KG, Mail Druck + Medien, WE.LOVE.PRINT and HOTSUSHI we will demonstrate what modern labels can achieve when design, embellishment, security and digital applications work together.

The labels are enhanced with DIGITAL METAL® by KURZ, protected by ValiGate® from the brand KURZ SCRIBOS and connected to the Digital Product Passport by KURZ DIGITAL. This turns the label into an intelligent touchpoint between brand, product, and consumer.

For brands and designers, it creates more emotion, differentiation and interaction.
For converters, it shows a future-ready combination of embellishment, brand protection, and digital applications.

And the best part: At PDC-NIGHT, the project can not only be experienced, but also tasted, with wine from Ökoweingut Markus Busch.

The Vestel NEXT Washing Machine, developed by Vestel International with support from KURZ, has been honored with the iF Design Award 2026. The concept combines a clean, minimalistic design with intelligent automation and a thoughtful approach to recyclable materials.

KURZ technologies play a key role in creating the seamless user experience: Decorative and functional surface solutions combined with integrated PolyTC® touch sensors enable a hidden-until-lit interface that appears only when needed. Technologies such as hot stamping and In-Mold Decoration (IMD) support an ultra-thin, durable design while reducing component complexity and production steps. In addition, IMD can reduce the carbon footprint by up to 70% compared to electroplating.

This project shows how innovative surface technologies and intuitive product design can shape the next generation of home appliances:

With 𝟵𝟵.𝟵% 𝗯𝗶𝗼-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 IGNIRIT® sets new standards in sustainable flame retardancy.

In an industry that is increasingly taking responsibility for its environmental impact, IGNIRIT® combines powerful flame retardancy with an almost entirely bio-based approach.

The advantages at a glance:

- Improved mechanical properties
- Low smoke emission
- Bio-based (PFAS-free, halogen-free, phosphorus-free, non-toxic)
- Water soluble
- Environmentally friendly

This makes flame retardancy not only safe, but also sustainable.
Focus on environmental responsibility in the construction industry – without compromising on safety.

The submission phase for the 𝗕𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀, presented by Pentawards and 𝗞𝗨𝗥𝗭, is now closed – and the most exciting part begins.

The entries are in, anticipation is building, and our jury is facing a truly challenging task: Selecting the projects that truly stand out.

But this award is about much more than embellishment as a decorative element. What matters is how it is used as a functional and conceptual part of the overall brand and design strategy – and how it strengthens the packaging design as a whole.

Of course, nothing will be revealed just yet. But one thing is certain: An intensive jury phase lies ahead, full of creativity, quality, and design details that make a lasting impression.

Over the coming weeks, we will be moving step by step closer to the shortlist being announced – and to finding out which projects will take home a trophy this year.

Stay tuned.

The next stage of the Best Use of Embellishment Awards by Pentawards and KURZ has begun.

Great conversations, valuable insights, and inspiring perspectives at the ID4Africa AGM 2026 in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire.

Our colleague Victor Ronald Dongmo, one of LEONHARD KURZ's experts for Tax Stamps and secure government solutions, joined leading representatives from governments, industry, and technology to discuss the future of digital identity, secure authentication, and revenue protection across Africa.

Events like ID4Africa 2026 highlight the growing importance of combining physical security features with digital technologies to create trusted and future-ready identity and 'track & trace' systems.

Thank you to everyone who made these four days of exchange and innovation so valuable.
