Family-owned Lollipop Print has won Best Publication Project at The Print Industry Awards 2026 for its work on WORKER, a museum-quality collector’s book created in collaboration with denim consultancy Endrime and photographer Cory Piehowicz.
The Sussex-based company was announced as the winner at The Print Industry Awards ceremony on Wednesday 30 September at the NCC Birmingham, recognising the technical execution and craftsmanship involved in bringing the ambitious publication to life.
WORKER is the culmination of more than 15 years of research into the history and evolution of workwear and denim. The publication brings together photography, archival material and carefully considered print and finishing techniques to create a highly detailed collector’s book.
Lollipop Print worked closely with Endrime and Piehowicz throughout the production process, translating the creative vision for the book into a physical publication while ensuring the materials, finishes and construction complemented its subject matter.
Craftsmanship brings WORKER to life in print
Production details include a distinctive denim-effect cover, art collector prints and case-bound binding, with the tactile qualities of the finished book playing an important role in the overall concept.
The finished publication has since travelled internationally through exhibitions and launches, with the Print Industry Award adding further recognition for the production and craftsmanship behind the project.
For Lollipop Print, which is celebrating its 15th anniversary in 2026, the win represents another significant milestone for the family-owned business.
Ed Entecott, Director of Lollipop Print, said: “We’re absolutely over the moon. We knew WORKER was a special project from the moment we started working on it, so to see it recognised at a national level by our industry is something we’re incredibly proud of.
“Projects like this are exactly why we love print. There was so much creativity and craftsmanship involved, from the materials and finishes through to the binding and final details.
“We’re hugely grateful to Endrime and Cory for trusting us to help bring their vision to life. We loved working with them on the project and it makes winning this award together even more special.
“We’d also like to thank everyone who supported and voted for us earlier in the awards process, and, of course, our brilliant Lollipop team who helped make the project happen.”
Mohsin Sajid, Founder of Endrime, added: “I’ve worked with the team at Lollipop Print on a number of projects over the years, and they continue to impress me with their attention to detail, technical knowledge and commitment to quality.
“For a project like WORKER, which represents more than 15 years of research and passion, it was essential to partner with a printer I could trust completely. The team understood the significance of the book and worked closely with us to ensure every element was produced to the highest possible standard.
“The finished result is exceptional, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.”
