A sustainable, bio-based, recyclable box for taking home a newly purchased plant. An excellent alternative for plastic packaging! The roof protects the delicate leaves of the plant, in the summer providing extra shade from the sun. For shoppers it’s very convenient as it’s lightweight to carry. The package also enhances brand the brand as the surfaces of the house leave plenty of space for colourful printing.
Here a great example of how corrugated can be used as a canvas for the branding of a product. The Scottish beer brand `Tennents` used a retro design style for its heritage series, a limited edition lager beer.
High quality printing enables attractive promotion of the product, the natural brown colour of the corrugated box enhances the logo. This luxurious branding goes all the way to competing in retail.
Cheers! Unfortunately for some, only available in Scotland!
This innovative packaging designed for the transport of fresh fish named the EcoFishBox is both recyclable and sustainable. The corrugated board packages are delivered as flat sheets, saving space during transport and warehousing and the boxes are then assembled on site as needed. The box is waterproof and leak-tight. Different packaging sizes are available as well as possibilities of promoting a brand with good printing possibilities.
The EcoFishBox was awarded with a gold medal in the special sustainability category of the WorldStar Packaging Awards.

High Volume digital printing on corrugated is now a reality. That was the conclusion of a well-attended workshop held by FEFCO. New technologies are opening up new possibilities for maximising the use of packaging as a platform for communicating directly to consumers.
At the ECR Conference in May we spoke to Jan Somers—CEO, GS1 Belgilux—and Steffie Defreyne—Junior Data Manager, GS1—about how digital technologies (like trustbox which GS1 has developed) are helping retailers and producers interact with the consumer. We captured their views on video.
