New Bottle Design
Schweppes enlisted Birdstone, a Melbourne, Australia based packaging agency to design a contemporary look for their sparkling waters and carbonated soft drinks.
Challenge:
Validate new bottle design across glass and PET plastic materials.
Solution:
Using a combination of SLA 3D printing and CNC machining technologies, water clear prototype models were created and polished to a very high standard.
A total of six bottles were made across three design concepts, which were then subjected to a week of hands-on consumer research.
Result:
According to Birdstone, both prototyping processes produced outstanding replicas of the production materials.
- Prototypes matched the appearance, weight and visual properties of glass and PET.
- Expert guidance by Formero team meant true-to-life prototypes supplied.
- Timely delivery kept project moving forward on track.
