WorldStar Packaging Award for SPC ProVital easy-open cup
SPC ProVital’s easy-open cup has won a 2018 World Packaging Organisation’s WorldStar Award. ProVital is available in aged-care facilities and hospitals, where food waste is estimated to be as high as 30%. This packaging helps the healthcare system reduce waste while also making food more accessible to those with reduced fine motor skills, dexterity and strength.
The packaging has been specifically developed for Australia’s ageing population to provide a more accessible fruit snack using guidelines established by Arthritis Australia.
