Kimberly-Clark's cup of tissues

Kimberly-Clark de Mexico puts a new spin on tissue packaging with the recent unveiling of a paperboard convolute wound canister from Sonoco.

A seamed-on steel bottom and a friction-fit thermoformed polystyrene overcap are the other structural components of the package, and graphics are delivered by a paper label printed offset in six colors

A slit in the center of the lid serves as the dispensing mechanism. This slit is covered with a circular piece of paper that is held in place with a shrink band until the consumer is ready to open the container and begin using its contents.
