More and more practical and environmentally friendly packaging designs have been integrated into people's daily life, adding a little color and interest to the busy life, and also conveying the concept of green and environmentally friendly life.

Cocoa beans can not only make chocolate, but also make packaging

Maybe you like to eat chocolate chips and know that the raw materials of chocolate chips come from cocoa beans, but do you know that the shell of cocoa beans can also be used for packaging? PriestmanGoode has designed a sustainable lunch box made from cocoa shells, mycelium and pineapple shells. Looking to use natural materials instead of plastic to reduce environmental impact and create a more comfortable dining experience.

Have you ever seen a tote bag made of peel?

Minimalist design style, colorful color options, environmentally friendly natural attributes, this is the Sonne155 designed by Johanna Hehemeyer-Cürten and Lobke Beckfeld. This tote bag is made of biodegradable materials, and the ultimate destination of each bag is to decompose. Designers hope to use this design to replace disposable packaging bags and spread the concept of sustainable environmental protection.

Packaging is also soap, no waste

Looking closely, it is not difficult to find that most of the soaps purchased in supermarkets are paper packaging, but there are still plastic packaging for soap on the market. Every year, unmeasurable soap boxes flow into the ocean or stray in all corners of nature, causing pollution to the environment. In search of an alternative to plastic containers, designer Jonna Breitenhuber designed a soap package that directly encapsulates liquid soap in solid soap. Yes, you read that right, it is both a packaging and a soap. No garbage, isn't it nice!

There are many more packaging designs like this. In the final analysis, designers adhere to the concept of sustainable development and minimize the impact on the environment after packaging is discarded. This coincides with Ranpak's philosophy. We also focus on sustainable packaging solutions, using kraft paper that is recyclable, renewable and degradable.
