The awards are split between Promotional and Informational on-pack devices, with three finalists in the Promotional category and one in the Informational category.

In the Promotional category, Colgate's Sta-Soft Single Layer Label was awarded first place for its simplicity, attention-grabbing design and the option to tear it off without damaging the on-pack branding. The two runners-up were Lancewood's Single Decker Discount Coupon for its daring use of colour to draw attention, and the Smiling Feet Fix-a-Form for its effective use of copy and the highly-relevant prize on offer.

The next round of finalists will be selected at the end of July in Johannesburg.
