When the need for storing and transporting products, processed or not, the packaging came up, which came to be seen as a product in addition to the product, with its own factories, market research, technological inquiries, among other elements previously present only in what you might call the main product. Currently, the concerning designs, if, on the one hand, are part of a vast multidisciplinary field, on the other, require diverse skills and knowledge of design and other areas, to ensure the integrity and preservation of the products, both in transport and in storage and exhibition at stands. Although it is a key component of cost, which includes the physical value of the product, the packaging fulfills a function of communication/information, as a fundamental component of image and perceived value of the product, that is often much bigger than its real value. The packaging is the main link between the consumer, the product and the brand; Is the intermediation and, mainly, information. The articulation of the requirements to the functions that it assumes to guarantee the affective relation with its content is expressed in an information design strategy. Thus, considering that the understanding of Design is based on the line of thought of a transversal and multidisciplinary amplitude, this thesis, under the specifications of an exploratory qualitative methodology, presents a study of the textual or illustrative representations stamped on packaging, that propose to communicate and inform data about the products contained and manage meanings inserted in a cultural universe of consumption. The theoretical assumptions that support the development of research in the report were based on the semiotic principles of aesthetic, symbolic and practical functions of design, and on the discourse analysis. Pack of products originating from milk, with fruit containing individual portions used to attend to new market niches, mainly of individuals who live alone, especially the elderly, were taken for analysis and discussion. The aspects that configure the interdiscursivity and the intertextuality of the communication of these packages in this cultural universe of consumption in which we live have been identified. Questions of credibility presented in the information on the products, for which a valid and meaningful implication were desired, were collected, analyzed and systematized. They consist of propositions guiding the design of packaging as ways that, today more than ever, it is better to speak the language of the people for whom the products are intended.
