Premium Coffee Gift Packaging is the new packaging award organised by the famous Premium Italian Coffee Brand and released on Desall.com, invites all designers and creative talents of any nationality to design a new line of packaging solutions, to serve as gifts for a special occasion, be it Christmas or other celebration.
The competition is looking for a new collection of gift box packaging solutions dedicated to the products of a famous premium coffee brand.

• Sustainability: avoid any overpackaging, that is the excessive use of material for the package, suggesting more sustainable solutions.
• Internal structure: your solutions shall be able to keep the cans in their place, preventing them from rotating.
• External structure: whenever possible, avoid any sharp edges and cusps.
