HCT Group had an unprecedented three finalist amongst 8 categories in this year’s HBA International Packaging Design Awards which were held in New York last week.

Urban Decay was selected as finalist in the Green Category with their Bamboo Sustainable Shadow Box, whilst Dior Capture Totale Multiperfection Instant Rescue Serum was winner of the Prestige Skincare Award.

Highest accolade went to the iconic Lancôme Lotus Splendor pack: a collaboration between L’Oreal, HCTMetals and HCT France; which not only won the Prestige Makeup category, but swept the board, winning the over all HBA Grand Award.

Director of HCT France, Romayne Apcar comments:

“We are thrilled for both our customers and for HCTMetals… the outstanding success of both these products is testament to the determination and vision shown by HCT Europe MD James Thorpe, over 3 years ago, to build a world class metal facility within the umbrella of the HCT Group.”

HCTMetals continues its expansion program over the next 18 months in order to meet increased demand for injection moulded and pressed metal. HCT Innovations will be joining HCT France at the forthcoming Luxepack Monaco Show to present a new portfolio of zamac components.

HCT Packaging will be attending the Luxepack Monaco show from the 21st to the 23rd of October, booth RF10.
