Description
The MICROPACK project sought to address the packaging design needs of a new business line for Can Garús, the marketing of live micro-sprouts.
The challenge was to optimize the packaging used to ship eight tubs of live micro-sprouts to customers, improving protection against product tip-overs and reducing the risk of the box being crushed. At the same time, the company needed to reduce the amount of packaging material and its volume.
Furthermore, the project sought a sustainable protective packaging solution for the sale of individual containers in supermarkets.
Objectives
Optimize packaging for shipping 8 tubs of live micro-sprouts to the HORECA channel, and propose a new packaging for individual sales to supermarkets.
