The PPC’s annual North American Paperboard Competition is also known as the Oscars of the Paperboard Industry. It might not be the glitz and glamour of Hollywood but it sure was fun to attend the festivities in Austin, TX last month and see all of amazing folding carton and rigid box projects that have been submitted. We are honored to have received the Digital Application of the Year award for our Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cinnamoji Box Set. This General Mills limited edition cereal box project featured five fan favorite celebrities and eye-catching embossing and holographic foil embellishments. This fun box even made it onto the big screen and was featured on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DToPFZ_ECAw.

If you have followed us the last two weeks, you must be wondering who the last athlete is in our Monday morning inspiration series. Drumrolls please…she is smart, she is strong & graceful, she is the most decorated gymnast ever, she is… Simone Biles!
The last two weeks Muhammad Ali inspired us to dream big and cultivate our own inner vision. Michael Jordan taught us that it doesn’t matter how often we fail, what matters is that we keep zeroing in on our goals and not our losses. And Simone Biles is reminding us that we should live in the moment and celebrate the little achievements that ultimately get us to reach our big goals.
We thank General Mills and the Wheaties team for entrusting us with the production of these 3 special edition boxes. We loved being part of the team that highlighted these 3 amazing athletes. They truly are the greatest champions of our time.

Monday inspiration #2. Who does not look up to the one and only MJ? If you need one more reason to be in awe of this man, read this quote:
“I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot...and missed. I've failed over, and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” Are you still beating yourself up about your last failure? Stop and re-focus on your next win.
This special edition box featuring Michael Jordan was produced in cooperation with General Mills Wheeties for their 100th anniversary. It was the second release in a set of 3 celebratory boxes. Stay tuned for the next athlete in the greatest champions of all times collectors box set.

Our Story

Tap Packaging + Design began over 110 years ago when August A. Chilcote, the son of a Civil War Veteran, founded The Chilcote Company to sell photographic products. In 1920, August built a facility on Cleveland’s Superior Avenue and began manufacturing photo mounts. Over a century later, Tap Packaging Solutions still stands on the same block – much larger and with more technology than August could ever imagine. Today, his grandson David Chilcote is the chairman of the company.
