Dutch Packaging Design

For the Dutch brand Kips, Stepfive created two reclosable ‘out of home’ freshpacks for cheeses and meats including printable stickers. Each freshpack contains ten slices and is designed with an apparent color setting (yellow for cheeses and red for meats). The packs have a basic, clean design with clear Kips branding for optimum product visibility that convey top quality products. Kips is a brand of Zwanenberg Food Group.

Piece of cake for the urban grillmeisters behind their BBQ’s these days with the new and delicious Snack Skewers (Snack Spiesjes) from Dutch company Zwanenberg Food Group. Stepfive created the labels for this new product range. Each different taste variety has its own colour setting and the labels are placed at the top in order to have a good spot on the tasteful skewers.

Many food labels are confusing (and some downright misleading) especially with regard to animal welfare claims. To help navigate the confusion, the Animal Welfare Institute (AWI) has released A Consumer’s Guide to Food Labels and Animal Welfare.

This new guide aims to help consumers who purchase meat, dairy and eggs interpret the meaning of label claims and locate products from animals who were humanely raised and handled.
