			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://associated-labels.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Flexible_Packaging_Beach.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1244" title="Flexible_Packaging_Beach" src="http://associated-labels.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Flexible_Packaging_Beach.jpg" alt="" width="665" height="513" /></a></p>
<p>The Beachy Cream ice cream sandwich flexible packaging sleeves are inspired by fun in the sun, beach balls, and polka dot bikinis. Eating ice cream is fun and the frozen food packaging needed to not only reflect this, but also be easily portable and look just as delicious as the ice cream sandwiches inside the <a href="http://associated-labels.com/what-we-do/flexible-packaging/" target="_blank">flexible packaging materials</a>.</p>
<p>The overall packaging concept, for Beachy Cream’s frozen food flexible packaging, winks at surf slang and popular Beach Boy songs from the past. Their frozen dessert packaging feels modern and graphic while utilizing a bright and creamy beach inspired colour palette.</p>
<p>The only thing we would add to this delicious looking packaging would be a QR Code. The latest smartphones cameras have macro capabilities which means <a href="http://associated-labels.com/what-we-do/special-services/2d-barcodes/" target="_blank">QR code minimum size for print</a> has decreased and allows for really small QR codes to appear on packaging without compromising the overall design.</p>

<p>Made With Joy, a food and beverage company, launched their range of lassi drinks with the help of The House. The House, a design, digital and marketing agency in London, helped choose the name, create the identity, produce the packaging and launch the new website. The product label printing design is based on Indian colours, bling and patterns. A bold design and custom die cut label that is already proving a hit in the shops of London town.</p>
<p>At Associated <a href="http://associated-labels.com/what-we-do/pressure-sensitive-labels/" target="_blank">Labels Vancouver</a>, designers love our Digital Label Printing Division. We can provide instant proofs and prototypes identical to any new product line design.  Our fleet of  HP Indigo <a href="http://associated-labels.com/what-we-do/digital-printing/" target="_blank">digital label printing equipment</a> provides cost effective, versatile digital printing for labels, shrink sleeves and flexible packaging.</p>

<p>Halski Studio developed some fun <a href="http://associated-labels.com/what-we-do/pressure-sensitive-labels/" target="_blank">product label printing</a> for a line of natural hand soaps. Better Life, a leader in natural cleaning products, brought so much colour, pop and life to their natural hand soap labels.</p>
<p>We’re digging their all-natural ingredients that are good for the environment and love that the earth friendly focus doesn’t need to stop at what’s inside the bottles. Associated Labels, committed to greener alternatives in printing, offers innovative, sustainable and <a href="http://associated-labels.com/who-we-are/commitment-to-environment/" target="_blank">compostable labels</a> as well as petroleum free corn-based <a href="http://associated-labels.com/what-we-do/flexible-packaging/" target="_blank">shrink sleeves labels</a>. This means your labels, packaging and products can be good for the earth inside and out.</p>

<p>If you’re asking yourself: <a href="http://associated-labels.com/what-we-do/flexible-packaging/" target="_blank">What is flexible packaging</a>? One answer could be the beautiful stand up pouches designed for Scrumptious Splendid Cereals.</p>
<p>For this upstart challenger brand, Minneapolis design consultancy Ideas that Kick created <a href="http://associated-labels.com/what-we-do/flexible-packaging/" target="_blank">flexible packaging materials</a> that communicate taste, quality and adult indulgence to consumers at first glance. Each bag brings an entirely new retail concept to life.</p>
<p>“Our simple, sophisticated color story and clean, elegant type define Scrumptious as the indulgent alternative within the adult breakfast cereal category,” adds Kick executive creative director Stefan Hartung. “Small stand-up bags create a shelf presence totally unlike our client’s competition. And we delivered bags that are the opposite of another boring box with a bowl full of brown stuff on the front.”</p>
<p>You can look for Scrumptious in Walmart cereal aisles. Select flavors are being tested in regional markets.</p>
