  APF Member Benefits:

AsiaStar - an annual event  - The Recognition for Packaging Excellence

Since 1972 AsiaStar, the only Asia-wide packaging award, has been presented for excellence in packaging design or technology. Winning companies gain recognition for outstanding achievement with an attractive trophy, the right to use the AsiaStar logo for self-promotion and publication in several magazines and on APF website. The panel of judges consists of experts from APF member countries. To ensure that entries represent the highest quality, AsiaStar entries should have already won a national award. The student award recently introduced is to encourage and recognize student merit and achievement.

The AsiaStar Trophy and Certificate are awarded at a momentous reception ceremony.
