Boxes Bags New Business

A new generation of innovative household products is being developed by Baco
Consumer Products, the UK's leading supplier to the retail and catering
trade in conjunction with The Boxes Group.

Baco’s unique Wax Paper Rainbow Bags, in packs of 30 and in five colours,
come with a selection of assorted fun stickers to seal the contents. The
bags are designed to appeal to school children and mothers alike.

Boxes GH has co-ordinated the project which involved three of the Group’s
manufacturing sites. In addition to the carton profile design and
production, The Boxes Group was also able to offer packing fulfilment at its
Great Harwood site.

The design brief of the pack required the coloured bags to be dispensed
individually and the carton to be re-closed for easy and hygienic storage.
Boxes GH, specialising in carton manufacturing for the FMCG markets,
co-ordinated the profile design of the Rainbow Bag carton using a concora
cutting method, allowing the packs to be easily opened and re-closed without
the problem of burst perforations on-shelf in store. The cartons were
printed at Boxes GH using six colour print and a high gloss UV varnish on
450um White Lined Chipboard.

Ditone Labels, the Group’
s labels division printed the stickers which seal
and re-seal the wax bags several times. Each sheet of labels features 30
individual designs in a four colour process with varnish. Boxes Imaging
handled the reprographics.

The bags & stickers were packed by Boxes GH prior to shipment to Baco
Consumer Products at Amersham.

Allen Jerman, Boxes Group Chief Executive, said: “This is an example of a
number of Boxes Group companies working together to offer our customer an
integrated packaging service from design, repro, to cartons, labels and
fulfilment.

Baco Consumer Products stated that Rainbow Bags were developed to encourage
children to take a positive interest in their packed lunch by letting them
select their favourite wax coloured bag along with a fun sticker to ensure
easy sealing. Baco also envisage them being used for special occasions as
party bags and for storing leftovers.

The Boxes Group, with a turnover of £50m, consists of seven specialist
companies and majors on product presentation in a wide range of fields, from innovative luxury cartons for cosmetics manufacturers to specialist cartons for the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries.

The business operates from five sites throughout the UK and is part of
Clondalkin, the international group of companies producing specialist
packaging and printing products.
