Packaging Label System

A wraparound label built for JetBlue’s in-flight EatUp Café menu. Secure enough to fly, simple enough to read fast at 35,000 feet. Structure, flavor cues, and JetBlue’s pattern language working in one smart system.

EatUp Café Tamper Seal

Why + How
  • The container needed a tamper seal that confirmed safety at a glance. It also needed to live inside JetBlue’s visual system without feeling like an afterthought. Most seals solve for compliance. Few respect the brand.

    The tension was simple: make it secure without making it look added on.

  • I designed a wraparound seal that locked the lid and became the primary brand moment. The circular top label carried recognition. Extended side tabs created visible security and guided removal.

    The form followed the container geometry. Die-cut half-moons preserved clean application. A perforation ensured controlled tear behavior. Pattern and palette were pulled directly from JetBlue’s library and tuned for legibility in cabin lighting.

    One label system. Multiple menu items. No variation drift.

  • The seal shifted from a safety requirement to a brand asset. It reinforced trust without visual noise. It scaled across formats without redesign. And it proved that even a small adhesive surface can carry presence when the thinking is right.

    Design should never apologize for safety.
