The Design

About Creative Trade Mark Honigverpackung

Das Botanic ist ein Verpackungsdesign für Rohhonig, der in einem 380-ml-Glas präsentiert wird. Das Etikett besteht aus dunkelgrünem, ungestrichenem Papier und wird durch eine mehrstufige Tiefprägung sowie ein gestanztes Sechseck geformt – eine Form, die an die Bienenwabe erinnert. Matter Siebdruck und transparente Glanzfolienelemente setzen Kontraste auf dem dunklen Untergrund. Ein beidseitig bedruckter, gefalteter Anhänger trägt die Produktbeschreibung. Jedes Glas wird mit einem handgefertigten Holzdeckel aus Lindenholz verschlossen – jenem Baum, dessen Nektar die Bienen sammeln. Das Design spiegelt die Reinheit des Rohhonigs wider.

Unique Properties
The Botanic - A wildly impossible, natural raw honey made from imaginative minds with unrealistic expectations for quality and taste.
The packaging design concept is based on simplicity and respect for the raw materials. The label design incorporates a hexagon shape, a shape found in nature (like hexagonal snowflakes) and very reminiscent of the honeycomb. The hexagonal shape is prevalent in nature and it's considered the strongest shape known.
Dimensions & Packaging
380 ml glass jar
The label is enhanced by multi-level debossing and die-cut in a specific shape. The matte silkscreen and clear gloss foil elements on the label were chosen to speak to an upgraded experience and they provide contrast on the darker green background. Packaging also includes double-sided folded hangtag with a description of the product, which is printed on same, but thicker dark green uncoated premium paper.

Design Challenge
Creative Trade Mark's ambition was to create product labeling and packaging for The Botanic raw honey that would reflect the purity and natural integrity of the product. Starting with a product that is all natural, our challenge was to create design concepts that speak to the consumer about the original experience of the healthy and sweet, natural product inside each jar.
Research
By incorporating natural materials, the design of the wooden lid reflects honesty of the raw honey. The wooden lid echoes the other design elements which represent purity, natural harmony, and authenticity,values are which are the values of the beekeepers as well as our design team.
Inspiration
The aim of this packaging was to create a design that would announce its own individuality while keeping to the high quality standards and general concept of the natural honey purity. We wanted to show that the packaging reflects true balance between human and nature. To create such a feeling, we needed the special key. And the main key is the wooden lid. Each one lid are made individually by human hand from natural linden tree, whose nectar is so generously shared by bees in this jar.
