The new carton is called the euroset®-Safecon from A&R Carton in Bremen, Germany.

Made of 20-pt solid unbleached wet-strength kraft paper, the new carton replaces a corrugated box called the "battery box" that could absorb moisture in refrigerated display cases, says Steve Middelhoff, marketing manager of United States Beverage, Stamford, CT, importer of Grolsch for the United States. The wet-strength paper resists moisture.
