The Design

About Shiny Meadow A2 Milchflasche

Shiny Meadow A2 ist eine Flasche für Frischmilch. Die Flasche besteht aus hochtransparentem PET, das die Anmutung von Glas vermittelt. Die Form orientiert sich an der klassischen europäischen Milchglasflasche und wurde auf moderne Weise neu interpretiert. Eine große klare Fläche gibt den Blick auf die Milch im Inneren frei, sodass das Produkt unmittelbar sichtbar ist. Ein großes A2-Zeichen in der Mitte wird mit einer Ernährungspyramide kombiniert und bildet so das Markenbild. Die Flasche fasst 720 ml und misst 80 mm im maximalen Durchmesser sowie 238 mm in der Höhe. Das Design möchte Schlichtheit und Reinheit zum Ausdruck bringen.

Unique Properties
In China, the fresh milk is an emerging trend, most of the milk is just pure milk. Thus, we confidently designed a large area of transparency to show that milk is so nature, fresh and pure that there is nothing to hide.
The large A2 in the center is combined with the diet pyramid to create an iconic brand image. We aim to integrate this simple, modern and iconic design perfectly into the daily lives of elite families, making it a symbol of quality and elegance.

Production Technology
It only takes 2 hours from milking to processing, which is incredible. With pasteurization technology, maximum freshness is maintained without compromising the quality of the milk and achieving consistent high quality.

In addition, it relies on GPS to track the entire cold chain until A2 milk is delivered to the end consumer.
Design Challenge
Before talking about packaging design, there is a crucial concept to discuss: no matter how precious and premium the milk is, we need to remember that milk itself is an essential part to human diet in the long river of history. We need to convey the simplicity, purity and elegance of milk and turn these characteristics into our brand image.
Research
Unlike the normal fresh milk, Shiny Meadow A2 B casein milk has a special protein structure that makes it naturally lactose-free, more comparable to human breast milk and easier to digest and absorb.
The target group is relatively rational, high end with high requirements for products. In their mind, high quality life is not a pursuit but a habit.
Inspiration
The package design is elaborated to manifest a picture that the freshest milk produced in the pasture just now is carried to the urban table through time and space, as if the first sunshine arouses us in the morning.

We took inspiration from the European classic milk glass bottle and redesigned it with a modern vision. Behind the concept, there is a cultural heritage across nationalities, creating a romantic, affable and sincerity feeling, making this iconic shape even more attractive.
Project Duration
The project started in August 2019 and ended in September 2019.
Bottle sample production in Sidel Shanghai.
