The new palette utilises marine-themed greens and blues for the standard range and metallic silver and teal for the standard plus and black.

Dark green and silver have been used for the premium range and a shoal motif is used across the range, showing silhouettes of fish and fishing equipment.

In order to highlight the brand’s heritage in the canned fish category, CPB has incorporated the new strapline ‘Leading The Way Since 1857’.
