The Kemiart Forerunner 2007 Award has been presented by M-real Consumer
Packaging to the French champagne producer, Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin (VCP) and
its corrugated packaging supplier, Seyfert Packaging Champagne.  The prize was
awarded for VCP's two different corrugated packages of which one is for six
CellarBoxes containing champagne bottles and another is for a set of a
champagne bottle and cooler.  Kemiart Ultra is used as the surface liner in
these packages. 

“It is essential for VCP that the packages used to display our rare vintage
champagnes in retail stores convey all properties of the brand - luxury,
quality and innovation,” says Fabien Gaudard, R&D Manager Champagne of Veuve
Clicquot Ponsardin. 

By choosing Kemiart Ultra as a surface liner VCP achieved optimised print
results, the correct brand colour shades, and a metallic surface effect
resembling the sheen of its aluminium CellarBox. Seyfert used its ED Seytec
corrugated structure, which provides an even print result and excellent box
strength.  With Kemiart Ultra it was easy to achieve the desired print result
on time and within budget. 

Now for its seventh time, the annual Kemiart Forerunner Award is presented to
companies in the industry that have created innovative brand packaging using
M-real's Kemiart coated liners. To qualify for the Kemiart Forerunner Award,
they must have developed new end-use applications for coated liners or created
packaging designs that add value to branded products.  Award-winning companies
are those that recognise the power of packaging and the importance of combining
an effective graphic message with accurate colour shade control.
