Fresh salad in a cup

-- Packaging Digest, 10/1/2009 2:00:00 AM

A new package that contains salad, dressing, cutlery and the convenience of a cup to eat it from is being used by Hicona, Liechtenstein, for its recently introduced “lifestyle product” called Market Salad.

The all-in-one kit-pack looks sophisticated in the clear cup, and is a healthy snack that can be easily prepared and consumed any time, with little mess. The product is exclusively distributed by Coop stores in Switzerland. Greiner Packaging (www.greiner-gpi.com) supplies the K3 cup containing 120 g of salad, 40 g of French dressing, a fork and a spoon, and domed lid. Simply empty the dressing from the lid into the cup. Made from transparent PP, the cup allows consumers to see most of the contents. The top part of the cup is wrapped in a paperboard sleeve that provides pertinent product information. Market Salad is available in seven flavors.
