Hub Labels Wins Two Best in Class Awards at TLMI Annual Meeting
Hagerstown, MD — Wednesday, October 15, 2025 We’re proud to share that Hub Labels earned two Best in Class awards at the 2025 TLMI Printing Excellence Awards during the TLMI Annual Meeting. These awards recognize our ongoing commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and sustainable innovation in the label and packaging industry.
Award Highlights: Food and Sustainability / Innovation
Best in Class – Food
We received Best in Class in the Food category for our Chesapeake Coffee Roasters Bird Friendly® Mexico label, printed on our HP Indigo digital press. This label captures the vibrant details and rich tones of Chesapeake Coffee’s Bird Friendly® Mexico blend. It shows how digital printing brings specialty food packaging to life with precision and consistency.
Best in Class – Innovation, Sustainability, and Linerless
We also earned Best in Class in the Innovation, Single Application, Linerless & Sustainability category for our Perdue Harvestland Fresh Cuts Diced Chicken label. Produced on our MPS EF430 flexographic press, this project highlights the strength of our linerless technology. It helps reduce liner waste, supports sustainable packaging, and still delivers the print quality and performance our customers expect.
A Commitment to Craft and Innovation
“Great to see our journey to be excellent printers paying off with recognition from our peers,” said Thomas Dahbura, President of Hub Labels. “This is a testament to the hard work Hub does behind the scenes to make the process of slinging ink on paper magnificent.”
