Winners of the 2017 DuPont Awards for Packaging Innovation
DuPont has announced the winners of the 2017 DuPont Awards for Packaging Innovation. This year’s winners included solutions for novel food storage, fermenting food products, premium beauty products, new packaging materials to target millennials and more. This marks the 29th year of the Dupont Awards for Packaging Innovation, making it the packaging industry’s longest running independently judged competition. This year’s panel evaluated close to 150 entries from 24 countries.
A Gold Award was given to PepsiCo’s Granola Goes Nuts packaging. Designed by PrintPack, USA, Atlanta, this flowwrapper incorporates an easy-open tab that allows consumers to keep their hands clean during on-the-go use. The packaging for Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain Bakery Delights received a Silver Award. Bemis, Neenah, Wis., the designer, used a thin-gauge flow wrap film to mimic the look, feel and crinkle of paper.
