Burgopak has teamed up with orthodontic manufacturer Winnove MED to develop new product packaging for the company’s re-brand, designed to convey its ‘premium nature’, provide protection during postage and be easy to fulfil.
Winnove MED is utilizing Burgopak’s Cabrio pack which has two cavities in the tray, one for the upper mould and one for the lower mould and retainer. As no two rows of teeth are the same, the packaging needed to be carefully sized to accommodate the smallest and largest mould sizes that may be encountered.
Burgopak says the beams surrounding each cavity offer cushioning for protection, with the cover letter and scan sitting on top, filling the entire pack footprint. There is a separate mailer to protect the retainers in the post.
The packaging is made of 265gsm Metsäboard Pro FBB Bright and an opening ribbon. According to Burgopak, the patient’s custom-made retainers are manufactured in France by robots following a 3D scan of the patient’s jaw, then shipped back to the dentist or orthodontist surgery and fitted to the patient.
In 2024 German biotech startup Inne selected Burgopak to create bespoke packaging for its minilab product, said to be the ‘first’ at-home hormone testing kit. The packaging is made from 275gsm Alaska white board and the uncoated back of the board is used as the outside of the pack, aiming for a softer feel.
At the start of this year, OptimallyMe collaborated with Burgopak to create multi-component packaging for its at-home blood and microbiome test kits which include instructions, a container for the sample return and a pre-paid shipping label. The test kit packs are made from 300gsm Alaska White Board and a white satin ribbon.
