Third place
Design: Disposable Razor Packaging – Razor Dispenser
Designers: Magdalena Schmitz, Sarah Redlich, Mikayla Just and Alejandro Don Flores
'Razor’ replaces standard plastic packaging by a minimalist paper box that covers only the razor heads while leaving the handles uncovered. In the store the package hangs horizontally, stacking consecutively on top of each other, requiring little shelf space – still allowing the consumer to view necessary information.
Student winner
Design: Reload
Designers: Hamzeh Za’balawi, Franziska Prior, Marcel Diederich and Oliver Ricker
‘Reload’ allows the storage and sorting of full and empty batteries in the same package. On the top side of the package, the user can take out the needed amount of batteries and reinsert them on the bottom when they become empty. This eliminates the need for a special box for empty batteries while a red paper strip helps to separate full and empty batteries visually. The concept can be applied to different sizes and types of batteries. The package is made completely of paperboard to avoid plastics and different material combinations which simplifies the separation of waste and the recycling process.
