The APA are open to – brand owners, designers, printers and manufacturers, producers, SME’s, foodies, retailers, transport and logistics – in fact anyone involved in the creation of packaging.

The Southern Cross Awards are a national packaging competition aimed at tertiary students studying design at Universities, TAFE’s and Private Colleges. Students are provided with briefs, developed by the sponsors, and are required to produce innovative solutions to packaging design.

The National Schools Packaging Design Challenge is a packaging competition aimed at students from senior primary through to Year 12. Students are provided with an open ended design brief that requires the production of an innovative solution to packaging design. Students present their designs and rationale via PowerPoint presentations.
