Good Culture, LLC, Irvine, CA, specializes in the production of organic and natural cottage cheeses in a range of varieties—e.g., classic, blueberry, peach, pineapple, strawberry, and Kalamata olive. Good Culture enlists a confidential co-packer to fill and seal 5.3-oz polypropylene cups enveloped by paperboard sleeves. The thermoformed PP cups are supplied by Greiner Packaging using Greiner’s registered trademark K3® packaging technology.

The patented K3® cup system design features a vertical tear-open side strip, enabling consumers to easily open the product by separating the plastic and paperboard container components. Because the PP cup (thermoformed from sheet stock 1 mm thick) is protected by the paperboard sleeve, less plastic is required in each cup’s construction. In addition, the paperboard sleeve offers outstanding opportunities for printing virtuosity and message space volume, as well as providing tactile distinctiveness.
