Parkside collaborates with Taylors

Packaging Solutions

Parkside has collaborated with iconic Yorkshire based coffee company Taylors of Harrogate to create a new pack for its range of coffee products. The new design has enabled the leading brand to boost consumer convenience and satisfaction.

The new coffee bag, designed with an easy open flow wrap to improve the consumer opening experience, is based on a high barrier triplex foil laminate designed to extend the shelf life of the coffee while maintaining optimum flavour.

Daniel Fox, packaging buyer at Taylors, commented: ‘We wanted to change our packaging to make it more user friendly by ensuring it was easier to open, while maintaining the high quality of the product. We have previously worked with Parkside and know they have an excellent reputation for developing innovative flexible packaging solutions. We are delighted with results and excited about the consumer response.’

The innovative coffee bags are printed using high definition flexo and are comprised of a conventional polyethylene terephthalate (PET), foil and polyethylene (PE) high barrier laminate to ensure the quality and shelf life performance of the coffee is maintained. Parkside also utilised the company’s innovative laser technology Parkscribe to create an easy open feature.

‘Our family business has long been committed to trading responsibly, but over the last few years we’ve transformed the way we work with our suppliers and growers. That means collaborating with key partners such as Parkside to establish long-term relationships that provide us with security, quality and continuous improvement is key to our ethos.’

business development manager at Parkside, Staci Bye, said: ‘Daniel had heard about our industry leading packaging designs through previous solutions we had created for the company and approached us with the aim of developing something more convenient for the brand's range of coffee packs. It was a great project to be involved in and we were privileged to help a brand as prestigious as Taylors.’
