The 97th World Packaging Organization Board meeting took place in Vienna on November 14, 2016. The jury judged numerous entries from 35 countries for the “World Star Award 2017” in this period. Among the international prize winners is Schiettinger KG, the main Göppingen plant of the Schiettinger Group.
The company was successful with the “Beam-Box” sales packaging, which was awarded the “German Packaging Award” back in 2015 and the “Pro Carton Sustainability Award” in 2016. The jury was impressed by the high recognition effect of the triangular-shaped packaging. The triangular packaging perfectly picks suits the Varta logo and thus contributes to the quick recognition of the brand at POS.
The “World Star Award” is presented annually by the WPO-World Packaging Organization. The WPO consists of packaging institutes, associations and federations and is a non-profit organisation. The award ceremony took place during “Interpack” in May 2017 in Düsseldorf.
