Getting recognition by the AMCP is a great honor, said Stephen Gow, Director of Marketing for Spirax Sarco. We’re gaining brand visibility within our industry and we wouldn’t be in this position if it weren’t for our marketing communications team and support from clients and vendors.
Spirax Sarco received the gold award for a pharmaceutical print ad promoting their Steam News magazine. This ad was created by Leah Veldhoven, Graphic Designer for Spirax Sarco. The colourful ad featured a RX prescription bottle with pills pouring out of it. All of the pills had engraved words pertaining to what the reader would receive from reading Steam News magazine.
