Om Made Cafe is based in Bangalore, India and markets itself as a food and lifestyle cafe, and the brand recently began to offer biodegradable packaging for its delivery service.
The packaging was created by the designer Archana Kotian, and comes in the form of bags and boxes that are used for Om Made Cafe's five kilometer radius delivery service. The brand offers nutritious, organic foods and beverages and wanted its packaging to reflect that fact. The resulting products are made from compostable bamboo fiber products and are "100% food grade, non-toxic, zero-plastic and microwaveable."
Om Made Cafe's packaging is able to align with the brand's marketed values, while also ensuring that it is not harmful to the environment.
