Case Study

Clever Cladding for Coca Cola Freestyle

Hallmarks an international collaboration, involving designers and supply partners from the four corners of the globe. A single nozzle beverage dispenser provides Coca Cola anyway you want it.


Working with Invetech - a Melbourne based design and consultantancy company, Talbot were commissioned to produce the first set of prototypes, along with first pilot production runs for the exterior claddings for the “140 Flavour Freestyle Beverage Dispenser”. 

 

 

 

The parts are produced from High Impact acrylic, and printed in 7 colours using a distortional printing technique and then vacuum formed and trimmed via 5 axis router.

Accuracy of print location was critical in the process, along with maintaining colour accuracy.
