Part of our lifestyle

Penny Ntuli, Communications Director of Tetra Pak South Africa, said: "We are proud to receive five awards at the prestigious FTASA Flexographic Print Excellence Awards 2015. Generally speaking, we are seeing packaging designed to become part of our lifestyle and to fulfil our emotional needs - hence they suit our home interior style, they are the perfect gift, there are limited editions and co-creations. Some brands create extremely clean and white simplistic designs, others very bold and unique patterns or typography, therefore shelf stand-out is difficult amongst the clutter of different brands. It is key to find the balance between popping out from the generic design cues on that specific shelf, and still being intuitive and relevant."
