Kalm project cover

01 — Challenge

Kalm launched with three products in a market of hundreds. Shelves were loud, and every brand promised a miracle.

Kalm wanted to win by saying less.

02 — Approach

We designed a quiet system: one typeface, two colours and labels that explain what each product does in five words.

The packaging uses recycled paper and no plastic film.

03 — Result

Kalm signed 14 new retailers in its first year. Repeat purchases reached 62%.

Shop staff say the packs are the easiest on the shelf to explain.

Concept to shelf

“We asked for calm and got clarity. The packaging explains itself.”
