Redesigning Panadol Rapid Handipack Wallet for Sustainability

Background

Haleon, a global leader in consumer healthcare, sought to enhance the environmental sustainability of its packaging for the Panadol Rapid Handipack wallet. The existing 10-pack plastic format was not aligned with growing consumer demand for eco-friendly solutions or the company’s sustainability goals. Haleon aimed to transition to a plastic-free alternative while introducing an updated 8-pack format.

The Challenge

The key objectives for the new packaging included:

  1. Sustainability: Eliminating plastic components and reducing environmental impact.
  2. Functionality: Maintaining the portability, durability, and user-friendliness of the handipack.
  3. Brand Integrity: Preserving Panadol’s trusted brand identity through an appealing design that aligns with its consumer-centric values.
  4. Efficiency: Ensuring the new pack could be produced efficiently and cost-effectively.

The Solution

Labelmakers, a leader in sustainable packaging solutions, partnered with Probiotec and Haleon to design and develop the revised handipack wallet. Taking the brief on board, Labelmakers engineered an innovative solution: a compact wallet format made entirely of solid fibre board.

The new design met all the objectives by:

  • Removing plastic: Transitioning to a mono-material fibre board eliminated plastic usage entirely.
  • Sustainability features: The fibre board is recyclable and sourced from responsibly managed forests, aligning with Haleon’s commitment to sustainability.
  • Enhanced user experience: The compact 8-pack format maintained the portability and accessibility of the original design, ensuring customer satisfaction.
  • Premium look and feel: The updated pack maintained a professional appearance with high-quality printing and branding elements, reinforcing consumer trust.

Results

The revamped Panadol Rapid 8-pack wallet achieved the following:

  • Eco-friendly impact: A significant reduction in plastic waste and an increase in recyclability, contributing to Haleon’s environmental goals.
  • Consumer approval: Positive feedback from eco-conscious consumers who appreciated the sustainable packaging alternative.
  • Industry recognition: The redesign set a benchmark in the healthcare sector for innovative and sustainable packaging solutions.
  • Operational efficiency: The new format was seamlessly integrated into production lines, ensuring minimal disruption and cost-effectiveness
