The Campaign

The idea was to bring this brand essence to life with a brand new packaging. The “Krombacher BeerBQ six-pack” is made from special, biodegradable fiber-grass paper which burns for about 15 minutes and can be used as an ecologically responsible barbecue-lighter. This transforms a simple packaging into a packaging turning waste into resources.

Creative Execution

Based on the conventional six-pack, the “Krombacher BeerBQ six-pack” defines a new product-category. By the usage of biodegradable fibre-grass paper the packaging, it becomes an ecologically responsible barbecue-lighter – because the biodegradable fibre-grass paper is made from locally grown gras, harvested in a low-energy matter and requires not a single tree to be cut.

Indication of how successful the outcome was in the market

An ecologically responsible barbecue-lighter, that means: No chemicals. No toxic fumes. No waste of resources. No garbage. It’s the successful combination of the brand’s connection to nature with a favorite drinking occasion: the barbecue. This not only manifested Krombacher’s status as an innovator on the beverages market, but also led to a quickly sold out special edition of the „Krombacher BeerBQ six-pack“.

The “Krombacher BeerBQ six-pack” is attention-grabbing yet makes the core brand values visible. We linked those values to one of the most important occasions for drinking: having a barbecue. And so the product appeals especially an audience that not only cares about themselves but about their environment. An audience that wants to live in a sustainable, eco-friendly way.
