The jury agreed that this carton was a classic example of how a carton can provide a unique product identity to a comparatively standard product. An outstanding feature that caught the eyes of the jury members was the clever cut out that highlighted the brand name which, used in conjunction with embossing and different matt and gloss varnishes, gave a three dimensional effect that gave instant impact. The carton was also, unusually, produced using a single piece of cartonboard so simplifying the production of the cartons. The jury commented that this design cleverly illustrates that a mature product can be greatly enhanced by clever and innovative design.
