ALPHARETTA, Ga., Sept. 27 -- Neenah Paper announced its annual report was recently honored in two premier competitions that recognize excellence in design and quality printing of annual reports and other printed items -- the 2005 MerComm Annual Report Competition (ARC Awards) and the 2005 Premier Print Awards (the Bennys). Neenah Paper's annual report was honored with a Gold ARC Award for Best Overall Annual Report in the paper industry, a Grand ARC Award for Best Overall Presentation using specialty production techniques and a Benny award for Best of Category in its class. "We are very pleased that Neenah Paper's first-ever annual report was recognized with multiple awards and believe this is further proof of the value of using premium papers in communications," said Bill O'Connor, President, Paper Group. "Glossy 10-K wraps just can't communicate on the level of premium uncoated papers and since this was our first annual report, it was a unique opportunity to make a great first impression with our shareholders, customers, employees and others by utilizing a design that employed a wide variety of our most popular fine papers and brands."
