Smurfit Kappa has designed e-commerce packaging for Granja Mantiqueira, allowing the Latin American egg provider to promote its brand and Egg Club scheme.
The corrugated and paper packaging company created the food encasing for Granja Mantiqueira, the Latin American firm that provides the Egg Club initiative, which consumers can use to order eggs online for home delivery in Brazil.
The packaging is based on a briefcase-type look with handles for carrying. It has been designed to maintain the eggs’ freshness and solidity throughout the production and delivery process.
Biodegradable, renewable and 100% recyclable, more units of the new form of packaging can also be delivered within each shipment.
Smurfit Kappa Brazil CEO Manuel Alcalá said: “The fragile nature of eggs was a key factor in this project. We took a data-driven approach and used our eSmart service tools to design a fit-for-purpose and attractive packaging solution.
“We reviewed all aspects of Mantiquiera’s supply chain to ensure that all products were delivered in perfect condition with no damage or breakages.
