The Swiss Packaging Award is presented by an expert, neutral and broad-based jury. The jury is composed of various representatives along the lifecycle of a packaging as well as neutral and independent experts from the Swiss industry.

The judging will be led by jury president Stefan Jüde (J packaging gmbh).

The jury members undertake to comply with the following rules:

– They judge neutrally.
– The discussion during the evaluation is treated confidentially.
– Majority decisions are recognized by every member.
– If the entry is judged by a company for which a jury member works,
   he/she abstains from voting.

In terms of content, the focus is on promoting and recognizing holistically designed packaging solutions, regardless of the packaging material chosen. The jury will evaluate the entries only in the categories in which the packaging solution has been submitted. However, it reserves the right to assign a submission to another category if the category selected is obviously incorrect.

The jury evaluates the submitted packaging solutions using a strictly regulated, two-stage selection process. At the end of the judging days, the nominees will be selected and publicly published. Winners will not be announced until the awards ceremony.
