Awards

Journal Register Offset was recently accepted into the 2006- 2008 International Newspaper Color Quality Club, the printing quality competition run by Ifra (an international association for newspaper and media publishing), the NAA (Newspaper Association of America) and PANPA (Pacific Area Newspaper Publishers' Association). This is the highest honor a newspaper can receive for its printing quality. There are only 50 members accepted every two years from all around the world, and this year's competition, included only 7 winners from the United States.

In 2007, JRO also won 6 awards, including 2 first-place honors in the eleventh annual “Print Quality Contest” at the America East Newspaper Operations and Technology Conference held in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Furthermore, JRO has won the “Best in Show” award in 2007, 2006, 2005 and 2003 or four out of the past five years, making it by far the most highly awarded printing facility in the 11 year history of the contest.
