Sarasota, Florida — LexJet is pleased to announce that its product, LexJet Simple Grip Backlit, was selected as 2016 Product of the Year at SGIA Expo in the category of Media – Adhesive Back (not vinyl).
The 2016 Specialty Graphic Imaging Association Expo brought together leaders of the specialty imaging industry this year in Las Vegas. In addition to being recognized in the association’s prestigious competition, LexJet also hosted a lively carnival-themed booth featuring the latest technology and media products, including Simple Grip Backlit.
“What makes Simple Grip so special is that, unlike typical window clings, graphics can be illuminated with artificial light or natural sunlight to create really eye-catching displays,” says Shaun Jaycox, LexJet product specialist. “We’re extremely excited that SGIA has recognized this innovative, industry-changing product.”
The competition judged submissions across 19 categories for output devices and 29 categories for non-output devices. Conducted during the 2016 SGIA Expo (Las Vegas, Sept. 14–16, 2016), this year’s event was one of the most challenging in recent history.
“We are really thrilled with the participation from exhibiting companies, and we even doubled the product categories to correctly acknowledge all of the possible technical accomplishments honored in this competition,” said Ray Weiss, SGIA’s Digital Specialist. “The award winners have been extremely enthusiastic about their wins, understanding just how competitive the field was this year.”
