Rengo Wins World Packaging Organisation's WorldStar Awards for Four Products

Rengo Co., Ltd. announces that it has won WorldStar awards for four products at the WorldStar Packaging Awards 2021, hosted by the World Packaging Organisation (WPO).
The four products, which are detailed below, were also winners at the Japan Packaging Contest 2020. Winning the WorldStar awards demonstrates that their value has been recognized globally.

Hakutsuru Ukiyo-E Label Box Series

These gift boxes use ukiyo-e that transcend the times and fascinate people as motifs to publicize the Japanese culture of sake, to the world.
A single image is formed by aligning the front and sides of two boxes, and by adjusting the placement, an impactful sales display that looks like an elegant folding screen can be created.
The packaging engenders a desire to give the product as a gift and successfully cultivates new target segments such as inbound travelers and newcomers to sake.

Seasoning for Steam Pressure Cooking

Corrugated boxes for seasoning sauce pouches that are easy to open in-store and can be displayed directly on shelves.
The pouches are packaged directly in the corrugated boxes with no inner boxes, reducing the amount of packaging material and facilitating efficient transportation. Also, the sides of the boxes are perforated to enable easy opening with just two actions, reducing in-store workloads and raising work efficiency.

Starbucks® Coffee Traveler

This takeout container holds about 12 cups of coffee.
Freshly-brewed coffee is poured directly into the container, making it easy to enjoy Starbucks coffee in a variety of situations from business to outdoors. The container is easily carried with a single hand, and various innovations have been implemented to the structure to prevent leaks and avoid any leftover coffee being retained in the container. After use, it is easily dismantled by removing the spout pack so that the plastic and corrugated board can be separated for disposal.
