It has been 22 years since the Barbasol Shaving Cream can appeared in the original Jurassic Park film as a vessel for smuggling dinosaur embryos. To support the long-awaited next installment of Steven Spielberg’s groundbreaking Jurassic Park series, Perio, Inc. (the parent company of Barbasol) worked with Crown Aerosol Packaging North America, a business unit of Crown Holdings, Inc., to print two unique, limited-edition shaving cream cans to represent the new Jurassic World film.
Crown’s Midwest Graphics Lithography Center worked closely with Perio, Inc. to ensure that each of the cans, which feature Velociraptors and Pteranodons illustrations integrated with the recognizable Barbasol shaving cream striped packaging, were printed according to the designs created by artist Mark Englert. Englert is the same artist whom Universal Pictures enlisted to create Jurassic World movie posters for last year’s San Diego Comic-Con.
The effort made by Crown’s team to meticulously print the limited-edition Jurassic World Barbasol cans was recognized by the International Metal Decorators Association (IMDA). Crown received the Excellence in Quality award at the IMDA show in May 2015.
“We had a lot of fun working on this project with Perio, Inc.,” explains Melissa Quintana, Marketing Manager with Crown Aerosol Packaging North America. “Everyone on our team, from printing to manufacturing, took pride in showcasing the new film in the iconic series.”
