Exclusive Development for Mondelez

Differentiation in the retail trade:

For Mondelez, the packaging brief demanded a new product to be eye-catching, stimulating and impressive at first glance.

We achieved this through the use of a unique label format combining both Gloss IML and Matt IML. The round tub with a distinctive 3D look offers a real impact at the Point of Sale. Do you want packaging that catches the eye? The possibilities are endless!

Resource-Saving Packaging

With our weight-reduced PP/PET packaging, we were able to significantly reduce the proportion of plastic by using the removable carton. The packaging for meat, fish and ready meals is easy to recycle, provides a large printable area for your design and was awarded as one of 20 top innovations in the field of sustainable packaging by Packaging World magazine.
