The Leader in Portable Instant Shelter® Products Wins Gold Award for Digital Printing Excellence Four Years In A Row –

LOS ANGELES – International E-Z UP, Inc. (E-Z UP), the original Instant Shelter® brand, celebrates its fourth consecutive year winning the gold at the 2016 Specialty Graphic Imaging Association (SGIA) Expo in Las Vegas. E-Z UP was recognized in the Association's prestigious Golden Image Competition with the Gold Award in the Ad Specialty/Promotional Products category. E-Z UP continues its legacy of being the best in not only portable shelters, but also in high-quality digital printing.

“We are beyond thrilled to have won again this year! Earning the SGIA Gold Award validates the hard work we put in to providing customers the very best in high-quality printing,” said Brad Smith, E-Z UP President. “We strive to be the top authority in the industry year after year and these awards encourage us to continue doing so. Huge thanks goes to the creativity, dedication and consistent performance of the E-Z UP team – our people combined with superior materials, inks and equipment help to continue our reputation in making our customer’s brand and image rise above the rest.”

The annual SGIA Expo celebrates industry-leading excellence. The Golden Image Competition was conducted during the event (Las Vegas, NV, September 14-16), where hundreds of entries were evaluated by an elite team of imaging professionals judging on the technical accomplishments of each entry. This year’s event was one of the most challenging in recent history.

“The judges had a very difficult time this year, not because of the sheer volume of entries, but because of the overall quality of the work,” said Johnny Shell, SGIA’s Vice President of Technical Services. “Winning the Gold Award for Ad Specialty/Promotional Products puts E-Z UP among the top specialty printers in the world in terms of quality and capability. The ability to consistently print such high-quality products indicates that E-Z UP is an expert at controlling the many variables involved in specialty printing,” Shell said.

The SGIA award winning digitally printed products and awards will be prominently displayed in the E-Z UP Store located at the E-Z UP Global Headquarters in Norco, Calif.
