It’s very GREEN.
CoolCardie is made from cardboard. Cardboard has thermal properties that make it ideal for a drink cooler. In turn, this positions it as a unique and environmentally friendly drink cooler designed to offer an alternative choice to those coolers in the market that are less conscientious of preserving our planet.
The CoolCardie, we believe, is the only example of a recyclable 300ml, 330ml, 375ml and 750ml (not excluding wine bottles) drink cooler on the world market today. Not only does it utilise materials from pre-existing packaging, the CoolCardie cardboard can be recyclable.
CoolCardie is dedicated to demonstrating environmental leadership by providing businesses with a creatively designed and environmentally beneficial product, while providing the opportunity to captivate additional market share when promoting products and services.
It’s very MOBILE.
The CoolCardie is patented and takes less than 40 seconds to assemble and uses no additional adhesives.
The CoolCardie is reusable and when unfolded packs away flat for later use.
It is the perfect platform to get your message, from point of purchase, out into the marketplace. The outer surface can be custom printed, similarly to some current drink cartons, with company specific graphics (1 to 5 spot colours on raw cardboard or CMYK on a paper laminate) and offers a unique functionality to a product’s packaging.
Whether it is offered independently or part of the carton packaging (the same cardboard material), the CoolCardie will deliver a real point of difference and compliment advertising for future products and events.
With the neoprene drink cooler market ever expanding, it's time for that market to be offered a sustainable alternative that's fills a hole in the market while being planet conscious.
