Entrant: AR Packaging GroupCarton Producer: AR CartonBrand Owner: Kagi SohneStructural Designer:Sebastian EckertGraphic Designer: Brand Union GermanyCartonboard Manufacturer: Stora EnsoThe unusual shape of this packaging for Swiss chocolate is predestined for special occasions. Unique and eye-catching, the carton assures a grand appearance both in the shops as well as in consumers’ homes. The premium appeal was achieved without foil finishing; the packaging is 100% cartonboard and offers good sustainability.
The carton polyhedron replaces the flexible outer packaging and lends it a representative shape. An adhesive tape reaches from the top flap over the edge to the base and ensures the integrity of the product. The small chocolate bars are easy to take out. Open, remove and close – works perfectly.
Jury comments
The jury considered the Kagi confectionery pack to be very distinctive for the confectionery sector. The Polyhedron shape and construction was very appealing to the eye and no doubt on shelf, even when stacked as it has several faces to carry branding. The opening and closing top face allowed easy access to the product and the box itself was perfect for after use.
