Contagious – Plymouth Gin

Liam — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 10:44:55 +0000

Progress were briefed by Contagious to produce packaging for this luxury launch piece. Based on an old mariner’s chest and adapted to hold a bottle of gin it would highlight Plymouth Gin’s connection to the Pilgrim Fathers. The Pilgrim Fathers spent their last night in England in a building now occupied by the distillery and this is celebrated by the Mayflower being on the bottle label. Progress used a traditional oak that was then stained and varnished to simulate an aged effect. A wooden fly sheet contained the names of crew and passengers aboard the Mayflower and the press release was wrapped in printed canvas and wax sealed by the client. This all created an authentic looking piece with fantastic impact.

Stolichnaya is the most prestigious vodka brand in the world, and Elit is the jewel in its crown. SPI Group tasked NIKID Design and Progress to produce packaging worthy of the Elit title. The paper over board tubes, made using a metallic effect cover paper, were designed to imitate the shape and texture of the bottle contained within. They were branded with print, foil blocking and embossing. Progress are one of very few companies who can produce tubes to this style and certainly one of very few who can make to this quality and detail.
