A total of 36 winners from 10 countries and regions were recognized for their outstanding entries that pushed the boundaries of digital print innovation.

In its 18th year, the IPA 2025 APJ received 282 submissions from across 10 countries and regions, including Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Chinese Mainland, Indonesia, Vietnam, Hong Kong SAR, South Korea, and Taiwan. With numerous entries in Creative Design, Packaging, and Books, this year’s submissions demonstrated the growing demand for innovative, high-quality print solutions that deliver impactful results and redefine what’s possible in the world of print.

A Platform for Creativity and Innovation

The Innovation Print Awards (IPA) has long been a platform for print professionals to challenge limits, explore new techniques, and showcase their creativity. This year’s competition highlighted how advancements in digital production press technology are reshaping the industry.

With the commoditization of physical print, applications are becoming increasingly personalized and leveraging speciality colors to move beyond standard CMYK. Nearly 75% of submissions this year utilized specialty colors, demonstrating a shift toward producing high-quality, visually impactful outputs that stand out in a competitive market. 

“It is very pleasing to see that FUJIFILM Business Innovation, after 17 years of the competition has kept the independence of these awards intact, and no outside influence by either suppliers or staff has kept the credibility of these awards at the highest levels, something no other supplier driven awards can boast about,” said Paul Callaghan, Head Judge in IPA 2025 APJ. “It is transparent and being judged by the independent panel will ensure the future success of this event.”
