The company also received a big sales boost as a bonus.

One size of clamshell measuring 2 1/2"x4"x1 1/4" from UFP Technologies, Inc. is used for all 12 soap varieties, according to Pangea founder and chief executive officer Joshua Scott Onsyko.

Besides increased marketing, Onsyko attributes half of the products' sales growth to the clamshell packaging efforts that replaced a chipboard folding carton in fall 2005.
