Folding Box: EcoYellow Gift Box

Brand: Veuve Clicquot

Supplier: DS Smith

Veuve Clicquot’s Ecoyellow Gift box in mini microflute corrugated cardboard is made from 50% locally sourced hemp fibers and 50% recycled paper. 15% lighter than the previous generation of the coffret, it comes in two versions to house the Yellow Brut and Rosé cuvées.

Technical points: DS Smith and papermaker Favini worked to create a sufficiently rigid coffret, with printing on the irregular surface a particular challenge. The coffret is offset printed on the exterior and decorated with matte and glossy varnish. Flexoprinting with an anti-abrasive varnish is used on the inside. The coffret is embellished with embossing and pressing. The hemp is locally sourced; the offset printing is done with an alcohol-free dampening process.
