Award Criteria
The entry that best creates an innovative food product in an aerosol package.
Sponsor Background
The Australian aerosol industry has grown
over the last 55 years to annually fill over
230 million units.
Aerosol filling operations are undertaken
in Australia by, or on behalf of, most of the
major global brands and Australia is becoming
recognised as a centre of excellence for its
aerosol manufacturing capability, including
quality and service into the Asian region.
The industry would like to maintain and
develop this position further through
product and packaging design innovation.
Amongst the market segments that is fastest
growing is that of the FOOD AEROSOL.
Design Challenge
The challenge is to design an aerosol for a
food product of your choice that demonstrates
the innovative use of technology, graphics
and packaging.
This might be achieved by (but is not restricted
to) functional advancements such as:
≥ The development of an aerosol
for a food product that is new
to the Australian market; or
≥ Through innovative use of packaging,
materials or graphics will attract
new consumers or market segments.
The Judges will be looking for the entry that
addresses this challenge in the most creative
and innovative way and at the same time
offers clear social, technical, environmental
or practical benefits.
Students must justify and explain the benefits
that an aerosol would provide to their chosen
food product.

functional and market appropriateness of their
concepts with the technical contacts provided.
