Unimilk Re-launches Letniy Den with New Fresh Design

The carton design has been updated to use a new, fresh and colourful, format available in both 500ml Pure-Pak and one-litre Pure-Pak cartons.

6/6/2011 --- The Letniy Den’ brand has been re-launched by Unimilk with a new engaging design in 500ml and 1L Pure-Pak cartons.

Meaning ‘Summer Day’ Letniy Den’s key message is ‘try the taste of summer’ and its new high quality bright design is a huge leap forward from its previous very traditional image and for the Russian fresh milk and Kefir sectors – both in terms of product and packaging.

The carton design has been updated to use a new, fresh and colourful, format available in both 500ml Pure-Pak and one-litre Pure-Pak cartons. “The high quality print was seen by Unimilk to work in synergy with the new bracing design, helping to create shelf standout. The new look plays on the themes of light, happiness and the ‘try the taste of summer concept’ that comes from the fact that milk is more tasty during the summer thanks to lush grazing for the cattle,” explains Victoria Ovchinnikova, Elopak’s marketing manager in Russia.
