Durham Box recently worked with Yorkshire-based lifestyle brand, Charlie & Ivy’s, to develop new packs for its dipping oils, salad dressings and mayonnaise.

Founded by a farming family with a passion for great flavour – ‘great flavour and proper posh fare with a smidgen of what makes Britain great’ – Charlie & Ivy’s was launched at the Farm Shop & Deli Show in 2017 exhibiting a product range of rapeseed oil based gourmet dipping oils, dressings and mayonnaise, primarily designed for home entertaining.

In creating the pack, the corrugated packaging manufacturer worked to a tight timescale to a meet a deadline for the recent Country Living Magazine Fair in London on 7 November, where the products were due to be showcased.

The boxes, each containing three-bottled products, were initially produced in a white E flute board. To reflect brand values, the founders preferred a simple, rustic brown finish, which Durham Box achieved by making the boxes up inside out. By retaining the white board inside the boxes, Durham Box was able to print a wallpaper design to the inner faces to create a simple yet stylish effect. The box lids were flexo-printed inline with Charlie & Ivy’s brand style and were shipped to London in preparation for the Fair.

Charlie & Ivy’s co-founder and director, Jennie Palmer, said: “Working in a collaborative partnership with Durham Box is a great experience and nothing is too much trouble. The boxes look amazing, and to get them in time for Country Living in London was just fantastic!”
