Angela Spindler · CLIENT: Depot Creative
The designer was commissioned to develop sustainable packaging for a mixed range of hair and skincare products. The project challenge was to use one size of packaging for three different-sized products. This required some clever internal cardboard engineering to support the products inside the single-size tube. The cardboard tubes were printed offset with black plus two spot colors, a spot UV varnish, and all over satin aqueous varnish. The lid labels were printed in two colors on a self-adhesive stock.

- Unique Properties
- We were commissioned to develop sustainable packaging for a mixed range of hair and skincare products. The challenge was that all products were different in size but the final packaging could only be a single size. This required some clever internal cardboard engineering to support the products inside the single size tube.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The cardboard tubes were printed offset with x2 spot colours plus black, plus spot UV gloss and an allover aqueous satin varnish. Internal mechanics diecut only.
Labels printed 2 colour with allover satin aqueous varnish.

- Production Technology
- The single size tube for x3 different sized products was made to work for economical reasons. This was a very small run project so production efficiencies were essential.
- Design Challenge
- Securing a simple, cost effective variable insert.
- Project Duration
- 3 months in design and 2 months in production.
- Operation Flow
- Simple cardboard tubes sealed with a top sticker.
- Inspiration
- As the product heralds from Morocco we took inspiration from the familiar geometric tile patterns. This gave us a strong graphic pattern with which to work and echo across the range for strong pack architecture. The soft colour palatte is a nod to the parched colourful Moroccan buildings. Each lid is secured by an adhesive sticker.
