Paint-Dipped Packaging

Eleia Olive Oil Branding Mimics the Protective Treatment of Vines

— June 8, 2011 — Lifestyle
To consider the aesthetic of Eleia Olive Oil branding on its own may lead you to appreciate the charming simplicity of the olive green bottles against chalky white accents, but a closer examination of the packaging tells of a trade secret.

The cardboard boxes, metal tins and glass flasks that contain the precious liquid all look to have been dipped in white paint. Bob Studio settled on this clever and creative design because it directly references the way that the trunks of olive trees are applied with a protective coating to prevent the encroachment of insects.

Despite the insightful story of how this product came to be, Eleia Olive Oil branding maintains a minimal image that embodies contemporary taste when it comes to packaging.

1. Paint-dipped Packaging Trend - Opportunity for packaging companies to offer innovative designs that mimic protective coatings, adding aesthetic value and functional benefits.

3. Nature-inspired Packaging Trend - Opportunity for brands to incorporate natural elements and eco-friendly materials in packaging designs to showcase sustainability and evoke emotional connections with consumers.
