Evian has partnered with German packaging machinery company KHS to multipack PET bottles using nothing more than a few small dots of adhesive and a standard tape handle to carry the pack.

They will use Nature MultiPack technology for the brand's 1.25L “prestige” PET bottles of Evian natural spring water in select stores across France.

Nature MultiPack is designed to withstand transportation and merchandising logistics yet allow consumers to easily separate bottles from the multipack.

Compared with paperboard, shrink film, and plastic ring carriers, it uses dramatically less packaging material and delivers a premium look and feel.

Developed by KHS, it’s being brought to market by NMP Systems, a KHS subsidiary.

Evian is the first to commercialize the innovative Nature MultiPack technology.
