Premium Ham Packaging

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

EXTREM's Meat Packaging Presents Gourmet Cuts of Ham

— October 21, 2014 — Marketing
EXTREM's upscale meat packaging was designed by Lavernia & Cienfuegos in order to present the premium Iberian, acorn-fed ham like a decadent gift. The container for the meat is designed to be on the same level as other gourmet food items on the market, such as caviar and foie. In order to create this sense of luxury, the agency created a luxurious black dish to sit the slices of ham in. As a whole, the dish looks like a serving tray and it's beautiful enough to be served right out of it.

To top off the tray the design of EXTREM's packaging includes a small golden pig handle, which serves as the only indicator as to what you'll find inside the smooth matte black dish.

3. Edible Gift Products - Businesses can capitalize on the trend of gift-ready packaging by creating gift products that not only look luxurious but are also edible and enjoyable, like artisanal jams and jellies.
Industry Implications
1. Meat Industry - Meat companies can innovate their packaging to make their products appear more refined and upscale to appeal to high-end customers.

3. Promotional Products Industry - The promotional products industry can offer gift-ready and branded packaging for businesses that want to gift their employees or partners with high-end food products like artisanal cheeses and charcuterie boards.
