European Carton Excellence Award

Cardbox Packaging presented its first cardboard spoon on the market in 2020

Cardbox Packaging has been recognized by the organizers of the European Carton Excellence Award and earned the Innovations Award 2021 with Karlo Spoon. It is already the second hit of Cardbox Packaging in the competition. The previous year Cuckoo Ice Cream won in the same category. With this recognition, the company can enter Worldstar Packaging Awards 2022.

In response to the 2021 ban on disposable plastic cutlery, Cardbox Packaging presented its first cardboard spoon on the market in 2020. The further development, however, resulted in an even smarter packaging solution for dairy and convenience food. Introducing the Karlo Spoon, a joint development with Greiner Packaging, is another step forward in this project which has become an official part of the portfolio in February 2021. Up until now, millions of spoons have been sold.

Klaus Hockl, managing director of the group, says, “It is another sustainable innovation of Cardbox Packaging which has been awarded. We are highly motivated that our innovative solutions will be a part of our daily life in the future. We are very proud of our development team.”

The innovative spoon seems to be a game-changer in the disposable cutlery range. Jean-René Truttmann, a member of the jury, says, “The jury has not seen many products on the market like this spoon and we believe it will be really popular with consumers. The spoon is delivered folded so is very compact, is easy to unpack and assemble and the structural design ensures that it holds food really well. Disposable cutlery was previously made of plastic, sometimes of wood, but this one is 100% paper-based making it recyclable and sustainable.”

Cardbox Packaging is an international producer of high-quality and sophisticated cardboard packaging in the luxury and branded goods sector, with a particular emphasis on the food industry. Cardbox Packaging benefits from its lean structure with locations in Austria, the Czech Republic, Serbia and the United States (Pittston, PA). It is an attractive, expert partner for the European and American markets, particularly in the confectionery, food, cosmetics, and healthcare sectors.
