Kingsmoor Packaging produce festive Haribo tub
Thermoforming specialist Kingsmoor Packaging has worked with gums and jellies brand Haribo to produce a festive snowman shaped tub filled with Starmix treats.
Currently at retail, the snowman design, which has been in development since the beginning of the year, has a printed outer carton sleeve which once removed reveals a thermoformed rigid snowman with embossed features on the lid. The tub contains 460g and 100g bags of Starmix jellies.
Richard Clarke, Haribo’s procurement manager, said, “Kingsmoor came up with a number of options for this particular launch, but as a new concept the clear favourite was the snowman. Once the decision was made and the design refined, they responded very quickly to produce the required stock to meet our timescales. The end result is very pleasing.”
James Hill, managing director at Kingmoor, added, “With our work for Haribo, we are tasked to develop some exciting and innovative packaging solutions. And because thermoforming tooling is a cost effective option, we are able to realise those designs against tight lead times with greater flexibility and cheaper than injection moulding.”
Kingsmoor Packaging manufactures food grade packaging solutions in APET, PP and HIPS, as well as RPET, which contains at least 50% post-consumer recycled waste and at least 30% industry recycled waste.
