We had supplied our citrus boxes to online grocery retailer, Ocado, for two years when we revisited the packaging to accommodate a branding and design refresh. Through the box’s initial structural design and subsequent aesthetic revisions, it has always needed to satisfy three essential criteria: complete practicality and usability for consumers, offering an excellent level of packaging sustainability, and being able to provide a bold visual brand identity.
This ‘glue-close’ carry-pack design offers total practicality with side and top-cut ventilation holes, precisely applied perforations and a carry handle that can easily accommodate the full 1kg weight of citrus fruit inside each box. By utilising carton-board we were also able to offer a product which is easily recyclable and industrially compostable, providing a strong overall level of packaging sustainability. The carton-board specification also avoids limiting the printing and branding potential. A series of designs have since been created, each with vivid, ‘five-colour’ print processing available across the entirety of the external surfaces.
An initial quantity was produced of 250,000 units with current usage figures showing approximately 50,000 units per months – split across three varying printed designs. Finalised citrus boxes can be seen the Ocado online platform as well as through the more recently launched ‘Amazon Fresh’ platform. This new service from Amazon provides the rapid delivery of grocery to Amazon Prime customers.
