Liquid Dairy at SIG Combibloc, says. What's needed
are concepts that are target group-specific. When
it comes to package design, with their four display
surfaces fully available to present the design and
deliver information, carton packs have advantages
over packaging solutions that only have narrow

to communicate with the consumer and to get
him interested in the product in a positive way”.
Only with a packaging that is both attractive and
functional, that goes with the product, catches the
consumer's eye, and meets the taste and information
requirements of the target group does a product
concept transform into a 'total package', and has
the potential to become a successful seller, say the
packaging specialists at SIG Combibloc.
