MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Fiskars, a leader in the craft industry, recently won the 2011 Creative Impulse “Creative Tool of the Year” Award for the Fiskars® Everywhere Punch™ Window System at Paperworld, an international trade fair in Frankfurt, Germany.
The Everywhere Punch™ Window System was selected based on its demonstration of innovation, complexity, ergonomics, and design. The interchangeable punch design uses a magnet to align the base and easily punch perfect windows anywhere on the page – even in the middle.
“Consumers look for versatility when it comes to crafting tools, and the Everywhere Punch™ Window System was designed to solve unmet needs,” said Julia Dorn, Director of Category Marketing at Fiskars Americas. “We’re honored to be recognized internationally at Paperworld for an innovative product that eliminates the limitations of traditional punches.”
“Creative Tool of the Year” is one of six categories in the Creative Impulse Awards given by Messe Frankfurt Exhibition, organizer of Paperworld, and the trade magazine HobbyArt, bit-Verlag. The awardees are determined by an independent jury of experts and are displayed in the main aisle of the Hobby floor during the show and featured in a “Creative Impulse” magazine distributed during the show.
