Description: SoChatti Chocolate is on a mission to introduce the world to the real flavor of chocolate, and its packaging is an integral component of achieving that goal. SoChatti comes in a uniquely shaped, spouted pouch from Glenroy that preserves the specific aromas and flavors of the cacao bean, which SoChatti sources from various regions of the world and uses in its artisanal “chocolate on tap.” Additionally, SoChatti’s packaging enables the chocolate to be shelf-stable for up to two years without any preservatives or emulsifiers. This shelf stability has enabled SoChatti to receive approval from Amazon to be fulfilled year-round (most chocolate cannot be stored/fulfilled during the heat of the summer months).
Description: Amcor’s patented technology allows for a push-through opening while achieving high child resistance and senior-friendly ratings. The perforations are done on the PET so there is no risk of breaking the aluminum layer. The perforations can be registered to allow consumers to only push the product through certain areas, which minimizes the risk of children accessing the product. We achieved an F-1 Rating while maintaining high senior ratings. There is no need for perforations, which allows the possibility of smaller blister cards.
Klondike® Shakes
Award: Silver Award—Expanding the Use of Flexible Packaging
Description: With Klondike® Shakes in a spouted pouch, Unilever created a new mess-free frozen dairy product offering—the first to market such a novelty in the U.S. It is the ideal pairing between a product and a package that’s perfect for enjoying at home or on the go: no straw, cup, or blender needed. Klondike® Shakes are squeezable and ready to enjoy 3-5 minutes after being taken out of the freezer. Achieving the iconic Klondike® appearance was critical to maintaining the brand identity for the new product launch. Utilizing reverse-printed graphics and a high-performance metalized lamination, this package achieves the iconic look and provides the required performance to be executed in a pouching format. Surviving the harsh cold chain environment, this product created a new flexible package consumption occasion.
Description: Thanks to Amcor’s groundbreaking new clear anti-grease film, beef jerky and other meat snacks can power up shelf appeal and gain a competitive advantage. The breakthrough formula prevents grease droplets and smears from appearing on the package surface and eliminates “scratched” windows caused by fatty buildups in the jerky. As a result, brands can significantly enlarge clear product windows, unleashing design possibilities. Because the grease is managed, jerky snacks look leaner, healthier, and more delicious.
Off The Eaten Path Industrially Compostable Package
Description: The new Off The Eaten Path industrially compostable package offers environmentally conscious consumers another option as it relates to a sustainable packaging circular economy. The new structure offering combines several product, process, and graphical enhancements embodied within the new package and design. These include a fully certified industrial compostable biobased package, a proprietary sound-dampening technology for rigid biobased materials, eye-catching clear and concise “compostable” messaging, and a consumer interactive QR code providing details on composting options.
Description: In a recent product launch, Beachbody® partnered with American Packaging Corporation (APC) to debut its Cookies & Creamy flavored Shakeology® brand stand-up pouch. This pouch is novel, as it incorporates 45% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content at a minimum. The pouch is a flexographically printed, multi-material lamination of PET, MET PET, and LLDPE, and produced at APC’s Story City, Iowa, facility.
