To-Go Fold

Brands reduce takeaway packaging waste with specialty foldable designs

Trend - Sealable and easily stored takeaway packaging is allowing food retailers to cut down on waste while ensuring that customers' standards are still met. These items are replacing disposable cups, lids, and containers, and are effective packaging alternatives for food and drinks taken to-go.

Insight - As different regions create more expansive environmental laws that limit or cut out certain food-related materials and products, consumers are finding that the eco-friendly alternatives available to them can be inconvenient. Materials' structural integrity and the overall consumption experience have been impacted by these changing laws and business practices, so consumers are more actively seeking out brands that offer a balance between green consumption and practicality.
Workshop Question - How could your brand prioritize environmental protection while maintaining convenience for customers?
