The Rêverie 3 collection offers packaging designers a toolkit of visually appealing labels that are all made with materials from well-managed, FSC™ certified (FSC C012530) forests, recycled materials, and other controlled sources. With more and more brands now seeing the inclusion of FSC and PCR packaging as a necessity, we wanted to showcase the potential of today’s sustainable label materials.
With this in mind, five of the company’s responsibly sourced label materials were given to five Spanish design agencies, with the brief to create a new collection. The label designs in the Rêverie 3 collection were created for high end wine, spirits, sparkling cider, craft beer and tomato juice drinks, with excellent execution of the artworks with different printing techniques managed by Gráficas Varias.
The five UPM Raflatac label materials that were chosen are:
- BIARRITZ WSA PCR-FSC (20% recycled fibers): Natural-colored paper for premium wine and spirits labels.
- DROPS WSA PCR-FSC (100% recycled fibers): Textured and translucent paper for high-quality wine and spirits labels.
- FENIX WSA PCR-FSC (40% recycled fibers): Paper with minimal impurities for high-quality wine and spirits labels.
- HIPSTER WSA PCR-FSC (100% recycled fibers): Warm and elegant white paper forhigh-quality wine and spirits labels.
- VINTAGE WSA PCR-FSC (30% recycled fibers): Kraft brown paper for authentic and artisanal wine, spirits and beverage labels.
“Thanks to our sustainable supply chain, we are able to offer designers FSC-certified labels that have varying percentages of PCR content, suiting any requirement. Rêverie 3 was already an extraordinary range due to the use of the recycled content. However, what the designers have done with the materials has truly taken it to the next level,” Eulalia Alcaraz, Business Director, UPM Raflatac comments.
