Amberley Labels wins Label of the Year at UK Packaging Awards 2026

The award recognises Amberley's work on Color Wow's Dream Cocktail range, where technical innovation and premium presentation come together in a label that delivers far more than first meets the eye.

Supporting international growth without compromising design

As Color Wow expanded across Europe, the brand needed a way to accommodate multilingual regulatory information while maintaining the clean, premium aesthetic of its Dream Cocktail packaging.

The challenge was to incorporate more information without adding unnecessary complexity to the production process or compromising the distinctive no-label look.

Amberley's solution was an innovative piggyback label construction, combining a clear PP wrap with a discreet peel-and-read panel.

Produced and applied inline, the construction removes the need for a secondary application process, improving production efficiency while providing the additional space needed for multilingual information.

The result - a technically complex solution, made to look effortless.

Award-winning expertise

The judges recognised the ingenuity of the piggyback construction and its ability to balance regulatory requirements, production efficiency and premium shelf appeal.

For Amberley, the award is a fantastic recognition of the technical expertise, creative thinking and attention to detail that go into developing labels for some of the world's leading brands.

It also marks an exciting milestone as Amberley celebrates its first UK Packaging Awards win as part of Paranova.
