Design & Innovation Bottling beverage bottling Carolina Wild M&H Plastics muscadine RPC Group Vine bottleEnough to drive Carolina wild, M&H Plastic produces eye-catching beverage bottle.
Carolina Wild, featuring a U.S. indigenous fruit pre-dating European settlers, needed a a catchy package for the launch of the new drink in retail stores.
The Carolina Wild beverage, developed by founders Elizabeth Maxwell and Dennis Tracz, is a refreshing, healthy and thirst-quenching all-natural juice from local muscadine farms.
Muscadine (Vitis rotundifolia) is a grapevine species native to the American South that has been extensively cultivated since the 16th century. It has a berry-like fruit with a flavor all of their own and, to reflect this, the producers needed to offer a unique shelf presence through bespoke packaging—a fancy way of saying custom-manufactured packaging.
Positioned as a premium juice which has myriad health benefits with its naturally high levels of antioxidants and polyphenols, the product and its packaging has won the hearts of celebrity chefs around the Southern U.S.
For this, Carolina Wild turned to M&H Plastics, part of the RPC Group, in Virginia to produce their bottle that captured both the berry shape and the twisted nature of the vine on which it grows.
Offering a high gloss finish and bright graphics, the Carolina Wild 12-ounce “Vine” bottle is designed to let the rich color of the juice shine through, allowing the customer to see the purity.
