TESS is using O.Berk’s 2-oz and 4-oz clear and white PET Boston Round bottles with white disc dispensing caps or fine-mist spray tops, and 4-oz clear PET wide-mouth jars with white smooth-sided caps. Color hues on containers and caps match brand formulations and colors.

“Having spent 20 years as co-owner of the Shand Group, a marketing and branding company, I recognize the importance of the look of the brand is key to its success,” notes Shand. “The first thing the consumer sees is the packaging. It sets the tone for what’s to come. The product itself is amazing, so the packaging has to portray that.”
