50 • JULY 2026 • PPAI Print On Hard Surfaces GOLD Opti Print & Fulfillment Opti Print & Fulfillment was chosen to create two lenticular prints for the Museum of Modern Art in New York City for its Best of American Art series. Out of 100 entries, Opti’s flower print was awarded Best of Show, and the company won the competition and the honor of creating and producing prints for the exhibition. More than 50 hours of prepress time were used to print more than 20 of each of the two images to get the required number for the competition and display. Opti used its proprietary software and Photoshop to create the 3D depth and animation needed to add movement to the image. Using special packing and courier services, the prints were delivered to New York City, and MoMA allowed members of the Opti team to personally supervise installation of the prints in the museum. Lighting was a key factor, and MoMA personnel worked with the team to create the exact contrast needed. SILVER CounterPoint A stunning image of top Canyon/SRAM Racing cyclist Kasia Niewiadoma, captured in a moment of intense competition, pairs well with bold messaging to visually express Giro Sport Design’s passion for design and innovation. The image was printed on a PVC sheet using an HP Indigo 30000 digital offset lithography press then laminated with CounterPoint’s durable Vynex surface, a liquid electrophotography technology. It was finished with a durable DuraTec base to easily withstand daily use in a retail environment. To achieve the stark contrast and make the image come alive, graphic artists applied expert color correction to ensure perfection of all the intricate details, from the helmet’s design to the blur of the trees. The result is a vibrant counter mat with exceptional clarity, making the passion and performance of professional cycling come to life. Must Read | 2026 Pyramid Awards In Supplier Decorating
