# Undressed Oil Packaging Creteleon Olive Oil Bottle Comes with a Sheath Perfect for Gifting By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-06-06 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olive-oil References: [thedieline](http://www.thedieline.com/blog/2014/6/4/creteleon) & [polydoroudesign](http://www.polydoroudesign.com/) As subtly suggested by the name of the olive oil, Creteleon is a [premium olive oil](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourmet-extra-virgin-olive-oil) that is produced on the Greek island of Crete. When it comes to [olive oil packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/agrumatomethod-olive-oil), there's a bit of a divide: purists will say that containers shouldn't let any of the product show, since light can be damaging to the oil. On the other hand, being able to see the [liquid gold](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourmet-olive-oils) inside usually means that it will sell better in a retail environment. The packaging for Creteleon by T&E Polydorou Design offers a fairly good compromise. Most of the olive oil is concealed with an opaque detail on the bottle and to ensure freshness, the bottle can also be placed in a cloth bag. As well as protecting the oil inside, this makes the olive oil highly giftable as well. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 50% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Transparent Packaging:** Opportunity to create packaging designs that balance visibility of the product and protection of its contents, appealing to both purists and retail customers. - **Premium Gifting:** Opportunity to create high-quality packaging solutions that enhance the gifting experience of luxury products, like olive oil. - **Sustainable Packaging:** Opportunity to develop eco-friendly packaging materials and designs that can preserve the freshness and quality of the product while reducing environmental impact. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food and Beverage:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to revolutionize packaging solutions and enhance the presentation and preservation of food and beverage products. - **Luxury Goods:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to redefine the gifting experience by creating premium and aesthetic packaging solutions for luxury goods. - **Packaging and Printing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity to develop innovative, sustainable, and functional packaging designs using advanced printing technologies and materials. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Customizable Olive Oil Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paint-pour-gift-set.md) - [Aluminum Bottled Oils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/extra-virgin-olive-oil-bottles.md) - [Re-Designed Family-Owned Olive Oils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/itxart-olive-oil.md) - [Hand-Painted EVOO Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handpainted-evoo-bottle.md) - [Olive Oil Packaging Expansions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drizzle-and-sizzle.md) - [Single-Serve Olive Oil Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spanish-extra-virgin-olive-oil.md) - [One-Handed Olive Oil Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dress-drizz.md) - [Squeezable Olive Oil Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chefs-bottle.md) - [Gourmet Extra Virgin Olive Oils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gourmet-extra-virgin-olive-oil.md)
