The EEASY Lid Debuts in France
CCT announced the debut of the EEASY Lid at the Alina Bordeaux trade show which was held on September 27 and 28 in Bordeaux, France. Pont Emballage, a packaging supplier based in the Netherlands, displayed CCT’s EEASY Lid in their show booth to highlight the benefits of accessible packaging.
Alina Bordeaux is the only professional exhibition for the agri-food industry in Southwest France. Over 2,000 key buyers in the food sector attended the show, getting a unique opportunity to explore the latest trends and developments in the industry.
Commenting in a press release on the EEASY Lid’s debut in France, CCT president Brandon Bach said: “There are over 87 million Europeans with some sort of disability – and this doesn’t even include physical limitations such as arthritis, carpel tunnel or weakened grip strength due to aging. Accessible packaging allows brands to reach this additional market while addressing consumer needs. Everyone should be able to easily open and enjoy their favorite jarred food product without the need for tools or opening hacks.”
