A SOUTH Cumbrian based papermaker James Cropper is celebrating after taking home a prestigious industry award from Design Week. James Cropper COLOURFORM™ won in the 3D structural packaging category for its Second Skin case for champagne house, Maison Ruinart, which was created in collaboration with Pusterla 1880, using the papermaker’s thermoformed, plastic-free, moulded fibre packaging innovation. The Second Skin case is made entirely from COLOURFORM™ moulded fibre and is nine times lighter than the previous box, reducing the carbon footprint by 60 per cent. Marrying the use of a recyclable material and the need for functionality whilst delivering a case that has a premium feel was one of the elements which stood out to the judging panel. The judges said that the project shows great innovation and manages to be simple and contemporary while still feeling premium.
