Pleated Bottle Packaging

The ZigPack is an Eco-Friendly, Effective and Exposing Wine Tote

— November 21, 2013 — Eco
When you leave the liquor store, the cashier might give you an extra-strong plastic bag in which to carry your bottles of alcohol. Certainly this is a practical tote, but it certainly isn't an environmentally friendly one. The ZigPack is a very green solution that comprises a simple single piece of cardboard that's been folded in three places and excised of four holes.

Feed the body of the wine bottle through the larger openings and the neck through the small circle. The recycled paper holder will appear to zigzag over the vessel, leaving a long handle for you on top. The minimal amount of material still allows the label to show through, and you don't have to worry about Xavier Bernis Diaz's ZigPack slipping off.
