Aktar @ Home was created by Michelin starred chef, Aktar Islam, during the first lockdown. He took the same values from his successful restaurant and created meals that retained the flavours and the modern and traditional cooking techniques from all over the world, that they used inhouse to create meals that could be delivered to people’s homes.
Aktar was looking for meal delivery packaging that would complement his delicious food and so turned to us.
We supplied a turnkey solution, designing the sleeves and the boxes, as well as advising on packing formats, materials and finishes to give Aktar the look and feel that he wanted while still delivering his meals safely.
The home delivery packaging included outer cardboard boxes and food tray sleeves. Our team designed the sleeves so that they made a set of four, meaning that when clients opened the boxes, they were greeted with a stunning set of meals.
We specified a high-class gold foil for the logo and a range of colours using the Pantone system for maximum consistency and visual effect. It was important to Aktar that the packaging should not only look good, but also be very intuitive for his packing team. We helped him develop a colour-coded system, which achieved this very well.
Since the launch of his Aktar Islam at Home range, we've helped to refine the packaging to make sure it's meeting the criteria. Recently, we've made some changes to make it even easier for his packing team to select the right sleeve for each dish, and to make it more flexible too.
The packaging really does speak for itself - check out his reviews on his website and you will see lots of happy customers mentioning the fantastic packaging, or why not order one of his meals so that you can see how good it looks!
Aktar says: "I am thrilled with the packaging Newton Print has produced for me, it makes my products look professional and eye-catching. The team were a dream to work with and nothing was too much trouble for them.
"I have received fantastic feedback from my customers on the packaging and would highly recommend Simon and his team to anyone. I will certainly be using them again in future for my packaging needs."
Aktar has received some fantastic feedback regarding the meal delivery packaging from his customers:
"Our box arrived today beautifully packed and in perfect condition."
"Fabulous. Beautiful food, very generous portions, excellent packaging."
"The care taken by Aktar extended to the packaging and delivery of the food - I would definitely recommend!"
