BIG SKY PACKAGING continues to grow in vitamin and supplement packaging!

The founders of Real Ketones, Rob Rogers and Gary Millet paved the way for the commercialization of clean ketone supplementation in 2013. Following the acquisition of the exclusive licensing rights of two key exogenous ketone patents, including one from Dr. Dominic D’Agostino through the University of South Florida.

Real Ketones has developed a seamless ketone supply chain to ensure consistent, high-quality manufacturing practices and GRAS safety qualifications. Teaming up with Compound Solutions, Inc., RK Solutions was formed to develop the GoBHB™ brand to ensure the authenticity and quality of our BHB products. During this time, Rob and Gary retained the most efficacious technologies and formulas for exclusive use, and then began the work of developing their own brand, backed by clinical studies.

Today, Real Ketones continues its quest to deliver the many benefits of ketones to people everywhere. We’ve invested millions into exogenous ketone research and clinical studies, and we’re just getting started. For example, in our most recent clinical study on weight loss and metabolic markers, it was proven that Real Ketones products significantly accelerated weight loss, fat loss, improved lean-to-fat ratio and reduced hip circumference—all while reducing normal insulin, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol.

Both personalized stock and complete custom packaging are provided by BIG SKY PACKAGING.

For a decade, we’ve known Birchbox as a beauty brand that delivers samples in pretty boxes. But its recent $45 million acquisition by FemTec Health, a new female-focused startup, marks a major turning point for the company.

FemTec was founded in 2020 by Kimon Angelides, a doctor who wanted to improve women’s healthcare with the help of technology like AI and genomics. It raised $38 million in funding from companies like Walgreens and Unilever Ventures at a valuation of $380 million. FemTec launched publicly in October 2021, and expects to serve women across many dimensions. It will launch Awesome Woman, a telehealth platform to help women navigate complex healthcare issues, from pregnancy to menopause, and sell a direct-to-consumer supplement brand.

To get a sense of how the brands will collaborate and weave together beauty, wellness, and technology, they shared details about their first three boxes. This week, they released a $129 Birchbox Meets Awesome Woman kit, which will be delivered in three Birchbox-style boxes. The first box will contain a skin-test tool commonly used in medical trials to help customers identify their skin type. Then, after they input data about their skin, they will receive two more boxes that contain products curated by Birchbox, along with supplements from Awesome Woman tailored to their skin.

This kit won’t replace the monthly Birchbox, but it will be marketed to Birchbox’s subscribers, as well as through Awesome Woman. Beauchamp says it’s just the tip of the iceberg, and there will be more high-tech health and beauty experiences to come.

Understand the role great wines can play in your life, certainly when in the Napa & Sonoma regions.  Whether it be served at a wedding, a special occasion, or a casual family dinner, you deserve a wine that inspires joy.  Wine packaging is equally as important.

Trefethen has been producing award-winning, estate-grown wines for over fifty years. Our legacy includes producing “The World’s Best Chardonnay” back in 1979 and more recently our Cabernet Sauvignon being named “Best in Show” at the 2020 Decanter World Wine Awards.

But our favorite accolades actually come from people like you who share how Trefethen wines play a special part in their family’s happiest moments.

Founders Eugene and Catherine Trefethen were ahead of their time. While terms like “sustainability” or “estate grown” were not widely used back in 1968, they understood that in order to produce world-class wines they would need a special plot of land that was treated with the utmost respect.

Today, the third generation of the Trefethen family carries on this vision. Wine lovers in search of outstanding Napa Valley wines turn to Trefethen knowing they will enjoy wines produced exclusively from our sustainably farmed estate vineyards.

Lune+Aster just launched a collection of tinted lip balms, and the story behind the name of each shade is incredibly inspiring. The brand, which was created by Bluemercury cofounder and CEO Marla Beck, partnered with six founders of women-focused organizations — Ariel Beck of Girls Who Start, Abigail Harrison of The Mars Generation, Ina Bhoopalam of Dream Equal, Valerie Weisler of The Validation Project, Haile Thomas of The HAPPY Org, and Judith Martinez of InHerShoes — to create new lip balm shades that correspond with the mission of each.

All six organizations are centered around a variety of causes, from encouraging girls to pursue careers in STEM to tackling gender inequality. The collection features buildable, vegan shades that are infused with hydrating ingredients, like vitamins C and E, and other good-for-you ingredients, like pomegranate peel and turmeric extract. Each one is meant to add a subtle pop of color to the lips, though they can also be used as multitasking products for the cheeks and eyes. Lune+Aster has also made donations to each of the organizations mentioned above.

Now about the product;

The pandemic has disrupted international trade, driving up the cost of shipping goods and adding a fresh challenge to the global economic recovery.

Around the planet, the pandemic has disrupted trade to an extraordinary degree, driving up the cost of shipping goods and adding a fresh challenge to the global economic recovery. The virus has thrown off the choreography of moving cargo from one continent to another.

At the center of the storm is the shipping container, the workhorse of globalization.

Americans stuck in their homes have set off a surge of orders from factories in China, much of it carried across the Pacific in containers — the metal boxes that move goods in towering stacks atop enormous vessels. As households in the United States have filled bedrooms with office furniture and basements with treadmills, the demand for shipping has outstripped the availability of containers in Asia, yielding shortages there just as the boxes pile up at American ports.

Containers that carried millions of masks to countries in Africa and South America early in the pandemic remain there, empty and uncollected, because shipping carriers have concentrated their vessels on their most popular routes — those linking North America and Europe to Asia.

And at ports where ships do call, bearing goods to unloading, they are frequently stuck for days in floating traffic jams. The pandemic and its restrictions have limited the availability of dockworkers and truck drivers, causing delays in handling cargo from Southern California to Singapore. Every container that cannot be unloaded in one place is a container that cannot be loaded somewhere else.

“I’ve never seen anything like this,” said Lars Mikael Jensen, head of Global Ocean Network at A.P. Moller-Maersk, the world’s largest shipping company. “All the links in the supply chain are stretched. The ships, the trucks, the warehouses.”

Economies around the globe are absorbing the ripple effects of the disruption on the seas. Higher costs and longer transit times are being experienced across the board. Contact BIG SKY PACKAGING today and see how we can take the day-to-day challenges of transit off your plate. Focus on building your brand, not your packaging.
