The jury evaluates packaging from the point of view of innovation, product protection, user requirements and environmental impact, as well as in terms of legislation and marketing.
Chair of the jury
Jana Žižková
packaging specialist
For Jana, the fascinating thing about packaging is that humanity can't do without it, even though it tries sometimes. Once she entered the world of packaging many years ago, she became engrossed in it and she doesn't want to or can't leave it... In other words: She believes in packaging; there is no world without packaging.

She likes packaging that works well, and if it can be sorted and recycled well, her garbage collector's heart rejoices.
