Australia’s plain packaging measure 2 Point of View: The Industry The Tobacco Industry: • The pack is the least expensive form of advertising. • It is the manufacturers’ last chance at a customer. • Pack design is the single biggest factor at point of sale. – “Our final communication vehicle with our smokers is the pack itself. In the absence of any other marketing messages, our packaging … is the sole communicator of our brand essence. Put another way: When you don’t have anything else, our packaging is our marketing.” » Philip Morris Executive 3 Point of View: Public Health Public Health Advocates: • A pack-a-day smoker sees warnings at least 7300 times per year. • Package presents an educational opportunity. 4 Points of View: Side by Side 5 Anatomy of a Cigarette Package 6 Innovative Packaging Additional interior surfaces that can be used for promotion (“X-Pack”) Packs with unconventional openings, shapes; use of tear tape Tear tape boasts: “The World’s First Side-Opening Glow in the dark Pack” 7 Special Edition Packs Collectable packs telling a story (France) “This” teamed up with a men’s fashion magazine 2008 for this limited Beijing edition – 1,650 Olympics packs available for only three weeks (China) (South Korea) 8 Targeting Each stick has an image of Che’s face printed on it Named after Che Guevara, major figure in the Cuban Camel Rock – “rebel Revolution attitude” 9 Anatomy of a Cigarette Package “All aspects of the pack, including the pack outer, cellophane, tear tape and inner cards, maximise the ways in which the pack itself can be used to communicate with consumers” - Internal Industry Document1 Article 11 is about more than just health warnings 10 Packaging and Labeling Measures Presentation Outline 1.

  • Targeted Stakeholder Consultation on the Implementation of an EU System for Traceability and Security Features Pursuant to Artic
    Case Id: 2c117de4-21f4-443c-bc39-3a5365dce526 Date: 29/07/2015 12:23:13 Targeted stakeholder consultation on the implementation of an EU system for traceability and security features pursuant to Articles 15 and 16 of the Tobacco Products Directive 2014/40/EU Fields marked with * are mandatory. This is a targeted stakeholder consultation. The purpose of this consultation is to seek comments from stakeholders: directly affected by the upcoming implementation of an EU system for traceability and security features pursuant to Articles 15 and 16 of the new Tobacco Products Directive (Directive 2014/40/EU), or considering to have special expertise in the relevant areas. In the Commission’s assessment, the following stakeholders, including their respective associations, are expected to be directly affected: 1. manufacturers of finished tobacco products, 2. wholesalers and distributors of finished tobacco products, 3. providers of solutions for operating traceability and security features systems, 4. governmental and non-governmental organisations active in the area of tobacco control and fight against illicit trade. Not directly affected are retailers and upstream suppliers of tobacco manufacturers (except the solution providers mentioned in point 3 above). The basis for the consultation is the Final Report to the European Commission’s Consumers, Health and Food Executive Agency (CHAFEA) in response to tender n° EAHC/2013/Health/11 concerning the provision of an analysis and feasibility assessment regarding EU systems for tracking and tracing of tobacco products and for security features (hereafter the Feasibility Study). The Feasibility Study was published on 7 May 2015 and is available at http://ec.europa.eu/health/tobacco/docs/2015_tpd_tracking_tracing_frep_en.pdf.
