Nå fikk jeg svar fra Packaging Europe, (det firmaet jeg jobbet for tidligere, som selvstendig næringsdrivende), om innpakning til potetgull osv.

Hi Erik, It’s good to hear from you. I’m pleased to hear about your venture and hope it proves a big success. That’s an interesting question about the packaging. I agree that there would be a real risk of damaging the crisps in transit. You would definitely need an additional layer of packaging to protect them – maybe a light cardboard box, preferably small enough for the crisps package inside not to rattle around. This should be fairly cheap and is light but provides some rigidity to protect the crisps.

Thanks for the co-operation, with the Packaging Europe-database, in 2007 and 2008. I've now started a new webshop, specialising, in selling British food, to Scandinavia, (and Europe): http://www.godtebutikken.net/ I have some problems with the packaging, for the crisps and the tortilla-chips. I thought maybe it was ok, if I asked you, since you work in the packaging-industry. I need a packaging, that is light-weight, (because I send with airmail), which is in-expensive, (since the products aren't that expensive), and which have room for the 6-packs of 30 grams crisps and tortilla chips, that are very popular, in the UK. I sell mostly British sweets, but some customers have alse enquired about the crisps. I used to work as a food shop-manager in Norway, so this is two of my fields, IT and groceries/food. Since they have stopped selling the Glacier-mints in Norway. So I thought I could sell them on the internet, since many people in Norway, miss the Glacier-mints. (I've read on the internet). I mostly use buble-envelopes. But, I'm not sure if these are good enough, to send as air mail, without the crisps being broken into many pieces. I understand this is not really packaging, but more like wrapping. But I just thought about the packaging-job, when I thought about this, with the wrapping. So I thought that maybe you would know about this. Do you think it's possible to send the crips to Norway etc., without them being distroyed? Hope this is alright! Best regards, Erik Ribsskog
