FRANCE: DESIGN OF FLEURY MICHON TRAYS

Article Abstract:

Fleury Michon, the French food group, has chosen the Model company, to design its trays. Model is a subsidiary of thermoforming company Picard, which designs packaging using computer-assisted design, and which makes prototypes and small series in 1 to 500 items. Fleury Michon can carry out consumer tests using the Model prototypes before deciding on the shape or colour it is going to adopt for its packaging. At the beginning of its collaboration with Model, Fleury Michon had Picard make its trays, because it received the plans too late. Now Fleury Michon has three months between the time it receives the plans and the manufacture, allowing it to issue invitations to tender and to choose a manufacturer.

Comment:

Has received a new contract to make trays for Fleury Michon
