The five finalists of the annual Colored by INX Can Design contest are now known, and the public is currently voting for their favorites through INX’s Facebook and LinkedIn pages. The public vote will count as an additional collective decision.

This competition, celebrating its sixth edition, recognizes commercial can designs created by brands, agencies, and metal decorators before January 1, 2025, using at least one color from the INX catalog, a key tool that promotes color consistency and streamlines production.

Among this year’s selected finalists is Great Lakes Brewing Company, a winner in previous editions. The rest of the finalists are:

  • Boulevard Brewing CompanyQuirk Blueberry Slam
  • Karbach Brewing CompanyDunkels & Dragons
  • Left Hand Brewing CompanyMeyer Lemon Drop Shandy
  • Olberding Brands & Family / New Belgium BrewingVoodoo Ranger Tropic Force Tropical IPA

The jury, composed of experts in design, color, and printing, evaluated each proposal based on its originality, aesthetics, use of color, and the explanation of the creative process with the INX catalog.

The winner will be announced in late May through INX’s website and social media channels. In addition to recognition and an engraved trophy, the winning design will be featured in an article in the company’s Color Perfection magazine.
