Danish Bottling Company

Optimized packaging ensures strength and stability

Danish Bottling Company faced challenges with their existing cardboard trays for bottles, which lacked sufficient load-bearing capacity.

This caused issues during both handling and transport, as the trays couldn’t always withstand the weight of the products.

At Bentsen Emballage, we analyzed the existing solution and identified opportunities to improve both the material and the construction.

By adjusting the material composition and optimizing the design, we developed a new tray with significantly increased strength and durability — without compromising on functionality or sustainability.

The result is a solid, reliable packaging solution that meets Danish Bottling Company’s standards for quality and dependability throughout their production and distribution chain.

The new design ensures that their bottles are transported safely and efficiently — every time.

Trust, quality, and the right solution — every time

When Dansk Feriepartner received an unexpectedly low offer from another corrugated packaging supplier, Michael Vestergaard reached out to us to see what we could do. Michael has worked with us for many years and knows that when we take on a task, he can count on us 100% — on price, quality, and service.

We quickly analyzed the need and, through our strong network, found the perfect partner for the job. We ensured that all files, materials, and quality requirements were in place — and that everything was aligned with the customer before production began.

The result? Dansk Feriepartner got a solution that saved them both money and hassle — without compromising on quality.

At Bentsen Emballage A/S, it’s not just about delivering packaging — it’s about delivering reliability, experience, and the best possible solutions. We understand what our customers need — and we do what it takes to make it happen.

Midtfyns Bryghus — 12-pack box

Midtfyns Bryghus — 12-pack box

Midtfyns Bryghus experienced issues with their 12 x 0.5 L bottle boxes: the handles weren’t strong enough to support the weight and often broke. This limited reuse and increased operational and distribution costs.

In collaboration with the brewery, Bentsen Emballage developed an optimized solution featuring reinforced handles made from high-strength materials and a precisely engineered design. The result was a box that withstands repeated use while remaining cost-effective — without compromising on quality.

Since implementation, Midtfyns Bryghus has seen fewer transport damages, easier handling, and a more reliable packaging solution that can be reused again and again.

Smart retail display for Faaborg Pharma

Faaborg Pharma needed a large (590 x 1.800 mm) retail display for showcasing products in pharmacies and Matas stores.

The project brief called for a double-sided display with print and gloss varnish. We explored the options and found that we could use an existing tool, keeping costs low for Faaborg Pharma, while production was handled by one of our trusted partners.

Despite its size, the display is smartly packed in a 60 x 60 cm box, making it easy for sales representatives to transport and quick to set up. Along the way, we also assisted with the graphic layout, and Faaborg Pharma was very pleased with the result — the display worked perfectly in-store.

You can truly rely on Bentsen Emballage

Suvit asked us for help with a project that required both an inner and an outer carton. The inner carton needed to withstand moisture and low temperatures while meeting specific strength requirements, and we assisted in adjusting both dimensions and material quality. Once everything was set for production, Bentsen coordinated the pallet scheme to ensure everything was registered in their systems and ready for production and packing.

“Even in these times of long delivery schedules, Bentsen got everything in place, and all products reached the stores as agreed. We have complete confidence in Bentsen Emballage,” says Michael Vestergaard, Managing Director at Suvit.

Sustainable and cost-efficient gift box for Orana’s products

Orana Danmark A/S wanted a more sustainable gift box. Thanks to our wide network of suppliers, we found an FSC-certified solution at roughly half the original cost.

At the same time, we reduced the height of Orana’s trays from 50 mm to 30 mm. The new trays are just as stable as the previous ones but use significantly less material — saving Orana Danmark A/S both money and resources.

A simple, sustainable, and refined packaging solution

Østerberg approached us with a request for packaging that would be easy for their packing team to handle and aligned with their strong focus on sustainability and the UN’s 17 Global Goals. At the same time, the packaging needed to be visually appealing — but still cost-effective.

We developed the ideal solution using FSC-certified cardboard and a simple design suitable for both transport and display. This approach saved Østerberg considerable costs without compromising on functionality or aesthetics.

The right solution in a wide range

There’s almost always more than one way to solve a packaging challenge — and sometimes the biggest task is finding the one that’s just right.

That was the case with the packaging for the Solevita brand in Lidl. We explored a wide range of design options before deciding on the final version: a solid-colored base with a neutral top that can easily be removed when the products are ready for display in stores.

Gift boxes with a clean, simple design

Midtfyns Bryghus had packaging that was cumbersome for staff to handle and had a heavy look that didn’t showcase their product effectively. They wanted a smarter, more appealing, and environmentally friendly alternative.

The solution was a simple FSC-certified gift box made from a lighter material — just as strong as the old version but far easier to assemble. It also has a more attractive appearance and takes up less pallet space, allowing the customer to achieve significant savings on transport costs.

Practical packaging with room for storytelling

Danish Nature Brew wanted new retail packaging that would be sustainable, practical, and allow space for storytelling. Together, we developed a solution that resulted in an elegant design — one that secures the bottles inside while remaining simple to assemble.

The back of the box is dedicated to storytelling, with the company’s logo featured on the other sides. Thanks to a clever folding design, we only needed print on one side of the board, keeping printing costs low. One single piece of packaging that does it all.

Transport and display in one

OK Snacks needed packaging that could serve both as a transport box and as in-store display packaging. It also had to be easy for the packing staff to handle.

We designed a Twinbox for them — a solution that few factories can produce, but which we can offer through our extensive network of partners. The Twinbox is assembled with the top and bottom glued together at the factory, allowing the customer to pack through a hatch in the top. In stores, the top is simply removed, and the products are ready for display — neat, organized, and ready to sell.

Service review revealed hidden savings

Our extensive experience often allows us to find solutions that are both better and more cost-efficient than the obvious ones. Dalby Mølle experienced this when they needed new trays for their oatmeal products.

Their original design included three print colors plus a varnish. When we reviewed the design closely, it became clear that one color could be removed without changing the visual expression. This adjustment allowed Dalby Mølle to save significantly on both the tray production and printing plates.

Storage space challenges solved with just-in-time delivery

Bentsen has worked with the company for 23 years, so when they began struggling with limited storage space, it was only natural that we found a solution together.

The right packaging, at the right time — every week

The solution was as simple as it was effective. We set up a buffer warehouse in available facilities near the company’s site. Here, we store all the packaging sizes used in their packing operations. Every Friday, the staff calculates which packaging will be needed for the following week’s production, and every Monday, it’s delivered directly to the company. The system also makes it easy to scale inventory up or down as needs change throughout the year.

S-flute reduced production stops and customer complaints

Engelsviken was struggling with frequent production line stoppages and a growing number of complaints from retailers — their existing packaging simply wasn’t stable enough. That’s when they turned to Bentsen for a stronger, more reliable solution.

We analyzed their packaging and recommended switching from B-flute to S-flute corrugated board, which could better handle the entire journey. This simple change gave Engelsviken a packaging line that now runs smoothly, while complaints and food waste have dropped significantly — all without increasing packaging costs.

New solution improved warehouse efficiency

The company had previously struggled with inventory discrepancies. Together, we identified that a consignment stock setup would be an ideal solution. We deliver to the warehouse, where the company can draw materials throughout the week. Every Friday, usage is recorded, and invoicing follows accordingly.

Bentsen manages the warehouse, and when stock levels reach the agreed minimum threshold, we coordinate new deliveries — determining both timing and quantities. This approach ensures continuous oversight of product turnover and a smoother, more efficient inventory flow.

UN-certified boxes in small batches at competitive prices

The company doesn’t need large quantities, but through our network, we can supply the required volumes at competitive prices. We deliver laboratory-tested, UN-certified packaging, allowing the company to avoid the hassle of testing and approval.

New tray solution reduced manual work

The company was using a tray with a very low edge (only 3 cm). Because of this, the trays had to be folded by hand before entering the packing line, making production costly and time-consuming.

Bentsen developed a four-point glued tray that fits perfectly with the packing line. While the new tray is slightly more expensive than the old one, it eliminates all manual folding — resulting in a significant overall saving.
