Packaging innovations: Lytt’s lit containers, Duni’s paper is the new black

Packaging Dive reported the development on 2026-05-15. Plus, Sappi North America and CJ Biomaterials introduce products that resist grease in foodservice applications.

The report places the news in a wider commercial context. Companies constantly innovate and redesign their packaging to boost performance, enhance sustainability and improve marketability. Here’s a look at four recent packaging product launches or revamps on Packaging Dive’s radar. The Boston Beer Co. introduced a new single-serve malt beverage, Lytt Electric Coolers, sold in unique packaging. The lightbulb-shaped containers are patent pending and feature.

For the food sector, the practical implications extend beyond the immediate announcement. The 6.8-ounce plastic containers are resealable and recyclable, according to a company news release. It says the drinks are “packaged using materials that have been designated as widely recyclable by How2Recycle.”.

Attention now turns to how companies, customers and regulators respond. Lytt founder Michel Myara introduced Lytt as a line of herbal-infused malt cocktails, and then expanded into hard seltzer six years ago, when the product was sold in cans. The format change comes after Boston Beer, the parent company for Sam Adams, Truly Hard Seltzer and Twisted Tea, acquired the brand.
