This year, at the 2022 Packaging Innovation Awards, by Dow, Gualapack Brasil and Amcor celebrate winning silver with the yogurt spouted pouch Danoninho Ice in the “Enhance User Experience” category.
While Amcor is one of the leaders in global consumer packaging, Gualapack is a global player in the flexible packaging industry, manufacturing laminates, caps and pouches.
The companies developed a innovative yogurt flexible spouted pouch, with an easy-to-open bottom, allowing consumers to choose between two usage options. The product can be kept in the refrigerator and consumed at room temperature as a creamy yogurt or frozen to make it into a single serving of ice cream. The packaging can be opened by the spout, for consumption of the creamy product, or by a laser perforation in the bottom of the pouch, for consumption of frozen Danoninho.
Luiz Duarte, Head of Marketing and Sustainability at Amcor Flexibles said, “At Amcor, we are always looking at how to connect consumer trends to innovative solutions that can be developed in a collaboration with brand owners. Danoninho Ice is a good example of co-creation with them, an on-the-go product that expands the yogurt category for children.”
“This innovative pouch allows Danone to create a product that is fun and convenient for their young consumers and makes snack time easier for parents,” added Alan Baumgarten, CEO of Gualapack Brasil.
