Groundbreaking BLEND 42 VODKA gets groundbreaking packaging

BLEND 42 Vodka is the first blended vodka made in the Czech Republic. Made from a blend of the best elements of traditional, Nordic and Polish style vodkas, it demanded packaging that also combined the best of many worlds.

Challenge

Develop gift packaging for the first blended vodka produced in the Czech Republic that reflects the unique character of the product. As a new entrant on the market a disruptive shelf presence was vital while decreasing material and handling costs.

Our Approach

We blended the best printing technics – offset print in combination with partial varnish to give the packaging the necessary ‘wow’ factor at the moment of truth. We also designed the packaging to reduce the needed space on shelf, to ensure availability isn’t a problem. But with this ingenious design the on-shelf advertising presence is more impressive than ever when two packs sit side by side! Costs are minimized by cleverly making the packaging and insert from a single die-cut that only needs to be glued on one end. And finally, handling is a breeze with easy assembly and smooth insertion of promotional glasses.

Results

  • More sales thanks to an eye-catching look and clever design that maximizes advertising space on shelf when packs are placed side by side
  • More sales thanks to a smaller pack that increases on-shelf availability
  • Brand reinforcement with a pack that truly reflects the values of the product inside
  • Lower costs with a single die-cut construction and easy handling
