SixB Labels is beyond grateful for another year of Graphic Excellence (GraphEx) Awards recognitions and partnership with the Printing Industries of America (PIA), showcasing some of our favorite projects. In this blog we weave in as much humility as possible, highlighting our awards with homes to inspire readers' future labeling projects.
