PET Yogurt product packaging design: creative and functional

The packaging for yogurt, especially the small bottles, evolves to try to meet the changing needs of consumers. PET containers are ideal solutions for this type of product, because the material allows you to create particular shapes that can be adapted to the vision of the brand and the selling target.

In the design of the PET bottle for this sector, however, the following phases have to be considered:

• Study of the preform;
• Filling and capping the container;
• Palletizing and distribution.

When designing the container for yogurt and the production lines, we must consider the fast decay of the product, therefore its shelf life, and the need to have low temperatures during bottling and distribution.

The conception of design cannot ignore these technical elements, but must also be based on market research and study of competitors, only in this way it is possible to develop unique packaging that allows a company to correctly position its product.
