Europe's Leading Print Industry Jury Honours OnPrintShop with EDP Award 2026 for Web-to-Print Excellence at FESPA

Summary: Recognised by an independent jury of experts from 20 of Europe's leading print trade publications for making AI practical and deployable in everyday print e-commerce workflows.

Barcelona, Spain — May 2026 —

We are proud to announce that OnPrintShop has been named the Best Print Commerce Solution at the EDP Awards 2026 for its AI-powered Web to Print Excellence, presented at FESPA Global Print Expo 2026 in Barcelona. The recognition comes from an independent jury of experts drawn from 20 of Europe's most respected print trade publications, and it validates something we have believed in from day one: that AI in print should solve real problems, not add new ones.

ShapeThe EDP Awards, presented by the European Digital Press Association, are among the most credible technical honours in the global print industry. Evaluated annually across software, printing systems, packaging, finishing, automation, and inks, the awards are judged on real-world criteria: productivity, quality, usability, environmental impact, and production cost reduction.

Winning in the Software category, competing against the most advanced e-commerce and web to print technology platforms in the market, means this recognition was earned on the merits of what our platform does on the production floor every day.

Naresh Devra, VP of Product Development, added:

"Every feature behind this win was built with one question in mind: does this make life measurably easier for a print business operator? AI-generated content, automatic translation, smart image tools, none of these are decorative. They are practical answers to the daily operational challenges our customers face. This recognition from Europe's top print experts confirms that we are solving the right problems, in the right way."

Here Is What the Jury Said About Us

"The OnPrintShop stands out by making AI practical and usable in everyday e-commerce workflows. From AI-generated product images and descriptions to automatic translation and design assistance, it simplifies storefront setup and enhances the customer experience without adding complexity. More importantly, it combines these capabilities with a mature, end-to-end web-to-print platform that is easy to deploy and operate, giving printers a solution that works today, not just a vision of tomorrow."

This award reflects years of deliberate product decisions focused on one goal: making it easier for print businesses to launch, operate, and scale their e-commerce operations without needing large teams or technical expertise.

Our AI capabilities were central to the jury's recognition. Here is what we built that stood out:

• Launch fully-branded storefronts up to 70% faster with AI-powered setup tools
• Generate SEO-optimised product descriptions and storefront content automatically
• Produce high-quality product images from simple text prompts with no design expertise needed
• Translate complete storefronts into 19+ languages automatically for global market reach
• Translate text within design templates without disrupting layout or print-ready formatting
• Remove image backgrounds and enhance low-resolution images with one-touch AI tools
• Increase storefront conversion with behaviour-based AI product recommendations

Beyond AI, OnPrintShop covers the full operational chain, from storefront setup and online design and proofing through to order and production automation, across B2B, B2C, franchise, trade, and reseller models. All with 300+ integrations and no custom development required.

Dharmesh Acharya, Co-Founder of OnPrintShop, shared what this recognition means to the team:

"This award from Europe's most respected print industry jury means a great deal to us, not because of the trophy, but because of what it validates. We have always believed that AI should solve real problems on the production floor, not create new ones. Every capability we have built is designed to remove friction at the exact points where print businesses lose time, money, and opportunity. Being recognised by an independent panel of experts who evaluate solutions on real-world productivity and usability tells us we are building in the right direction. We are proud to receive this at FESPA, in front of the global print community."
