Although packaging can be incredibly wasteful, I must admit it is also very important to a brand’s reputation. If you don’t agree (which I completely understand), just check out the Scanwood packaging.
Designed by Goodmorning Technology, the Scanwood packaging demonstrates their decision to stick with wooden utensils, even though many other manufacturers are using silicon. According to the designers, the packaging emphasizes “nature by implying that the product almost grows straight out of the ground.”
