Barossa Valley-based label producer Ultra Labels and Hentley Farm winery have received international recognition at the World Label Awards (L9WLA), taking out the Wines & Spirits Digital category for the Cotes de Hentley wine label.
The win follows three gold awards for Ultra Labels at the 2025 Flexible Packaging & Label Manufacturers Association (FPLMA) Print Awards, across:
- All Labels Non-Wine & Spirits Digital: IP War Hammer Protein Powder
- Wine & Spirits Combination Digital: Brookie’s Rainforest Gin
- Flexible Packaging Digital: BsC Meal Replacement Shake
The Cotes de Hentley label was commended by judges for its technical precision and use of embellishment, with the global award recognising the project among the leading wine labels worldwide.
Ross Fursey, managing director at Ultra Labels, said the recognition reflects the collaboration between the company’s team and clients.
“These awards celebrate the innovation and dedication of our team and clients,” he said. “We’re proud of this recognition, but even more excited to keep pushing the boundaries of print and packaging to deliver standout results.”
Fursey said preparing submissions allows the business to reflect on its work with clients and highlight what makes each project unique. “Every label and piece of packaging we produce has its own story,” he said.
Ultra Labels credited its designers, technicians, and production staff for their role in each project, noting the awards recognise the strength of South Australia’s print and packaging industry and its place on the global stage.
