Case Studies

A curated selection of case studies documenting innovative solutions in the packaging sector across different production contexts and application fields. 

The cases are catalogued according to predominantly design-driven and innovation-driven criteria, enabling observation of how materials, technologies, morphological configurations, and design strategies contribute to the evolution of packaging systems. 

The comparative analysis of the cases highlights design approaches, innovation models, and emerging dynamics within contemporary supply chains. Digital technologies, sustainability strategies, and circular models are considered as interconnected dimensions contributing to the transformation of the packaging sector.

ZerO2 Cap
An innovative bottle cap that keeps beer fresh and flavorful for longer.


In 2018, between Italy and Denmark, Pelliconi introduced ZerO2 Cap, a patented technology developed with Carlsberg. The cap features a deoxygenating tab within its liner that absorbs residual oxygen left in the bottle neck during filling. This reduces natural oxidation, extending the product’s freshness and preserving its original taste over time. The initiative meets the need Product Preservation Improvement and Shelf-Life Extension, ensuring higher beverage quality and a longer shelf life.
Un tappo innovativo che preserva la freschezza e il gusto della birra più a lungo.


Nel 2018, tra Italia e Danimarca, Pelliconi ha presentato ZerO2 Cap, una tecnologia brevettata sviluppata in collaborazione con Carlsberg. Il tappo integra una linguetta deossigenante nel rivestimento interno che assorbe l’ossigeno residuo presente nel collo della bottiglia durante l’imbottigliamento. Questo processo riduce l’ossidazione naturale del prodotto, mantenendo il sapore originale della birra per un periodo prolungato. Il progetto risponde al need Product Preservation Improvement and Shelf-Life Extension, migliorando la qualità e la durabilità delle bevande confezionate.
