GSK's new Sensodyne pack bubbles with tactile feel
A range of striking new packs for GlaxoSmithKline's Sensodyne Repair & Protect oral care product is the result of close collaboration between Chesapeake, GSK's internal packaging design team and API. Incorporates 3D bubbles designed to be so intriguing you feel compelled to touch the carton. The 3D feature simulates the effect of looking at a life-like model of a tooth as well as close-up images that help to describe the benefits of using the product. The effect is achieved by the incorporation of a series of Fresnel lenses into the cartonboard. The lens area is then overprinted. The resulting life-like perspective produces the impression of depth that provides the pack with a tactile quality that is further enhanced by the carton's bevelled edge.

Shrink-sleeve label provides graphic punch and valuable information
The newest product from Barn Dad Innovation Nutrition relies on a full-body shrink sleeve label to carry gorgeous graphics at the same time that it contains valuable information and nutrition facts. The PVC label is printed in eight colors and combines the benefits of a decorative sleeve and tamper-evidence in one application, thus eliminating the need for two components. A perforation allows the tamper-evident band to be removed while the label remains on the canister. UV inks for sustainability are used for all print jobs.
