I have tried the soap -- it is unlike any soap I have used before, where were you POMEGA over the past 40 years,

Look at: www.pomega5.com

It surprised us when we searched for “pomegranate” in our list of archives that we really haven’t done a feature on them yet. We’ve mentioned them as a flavor for lollipops, tea and even a cocktail delight but nothing in specific detail. Maybe it’s because the benefits of pomegranates are so widely known these days that we think you, our dear readers, are educated enough about them. Here’s one thing we bet you didn’t know: because pomegranate seed oil is one of the most powerful immune-support compounds ever discovered in nature, it’s now being used for skin care as well. Pomega5 is the skin care industry’s first complete line of organic pomegranate seed oil nutritional supplements and therapeutic skin care.

By using the highest quality, 100% pure cold-pressed pomegranate seed oil, Pomega5 has created a unique line of products that soothe, moisturize and heal dry, irritated skin which is perfect for us. We tried the Healing Cleansing Bar which is a soap-free cleanser made with olive oil, organic pomegranate seed oil, herbs and essential oils. We liked how clean our skin felt without feeling tight. We followed this with the Healing Cream which was equally soothing. Again, made with 100% organic pomegranate oil, it’s also known for benefits such as restoring and healing in addition to preventing anti-aging. Oh…and did we mention the smell? Yuuummy. The only aspect of Pomega5 to improve upon that this TreeHugger could find was their packaging. The products came in an over-sized box filled with Styrofoam peanuts. But not to worry – we followed the How to Green Your Recycling advice and reused the box and recycled those pesky things. ::Pomega5

If you were buying a car, you might think that a 20-point check by the dealership was a reasonable step. If you’re buying a pomegranate, it seems a little excessive. But that’s what POM Wonderful does: it grows its own fruit, and every pomegranate that goes into its juice is individually inspected for quality – and you really can taste the difference. With attention to detail like that, it’s no surprise that POM is particular about its packaging.

POM Wonderful has spent a couple of years working its way into our field of vision. Pomegranate juice isn’t likely to erode the market share of orange or grapefruit, but slowly and steadily the cute, curvaceous single serve container moved out of health-food store exclusivity and into the mainstream. With an aggressive strategy for marketing the antioxidant benefits of the humble pomegranate, it achieved ubiquity in trendy sidewalk cafes – and then things really started to happen.

How many health-food drinks take out ads in Rolling Stone? POM did, its tongue-in-cheek ‘Cheat Death’ campaign launching it to superstardom. Celebrities were seen sipping POM Wonderful – neat or in guise of a POMtini. Pretty soon POM was everywhere, and needed a bigger bottle.

And that’s when it turned to Eastman and specifically, the formidable formability of Eastar™ copolyester.

The POM Wonderful image is tied into the ‘double-pomegranate’ single-serving container and the company wanted to retain this for its larger bottle while adding a handle. The new 48-ounce container added an extra pomegranate but essentially stayed the same, keeping the now-famous bulbous pomegranate curves and the embossed stem. Molding something this intricate, adding an integral handle and retaining the clarity of the smaller bottle was a tall task, beyond the capabilities of most materials. And the task was made even more challenging by POM’s desire to mold its own bottles.

But to a company that’s prepared to make each piece of fruit go through a personal interview, challenging is just part of the scenery. POM has the sort of entrepreneurial spirit that doesn’t let trifling problems like sheer impossibility get in the way of the vision.

POM went to Bekum America to purchase the extrusion blow molding machinery it would need to realize its design, and it came to Eastman to provide the technical know-how to create something that shouldn’t be possible. POM liked the clarity that PET provides, but conventional equipment can’t produce a clear container with an intricate design and an integral handle. Only Eastar™ copolyester can retain its clarity, while providing a container with a handle.

"We faced the challenge of producing a clear bottle with a handle while still retaining the recognizable brand image," says Heather Lhotka, director of packaging for POM Wonderful. "We were able to bring our vision to reality."

For POM, the end result is a highly-innovative pack that tells its brand story. And no brand owner can ask for more than that.
