Alt Waste

Diaper waste is being dealt with in more sanitary and eco-friendly ways

Trend - Brands are giving consumers new options when it comes to making getting rid of diapers more convenient, sanitary and eco-friendly. These include everything from compostable diaper programs to waste bins that freeze their contents to reduce bacteria spread.

Insight - Consumers are trying to be more environmentally friendly now that they understand the risks of climate change, but convenience often takes precedence over eco-friendly purchase decisions. Brands that are able to combine the two in order to make people's lives easier while they're being more eco-conscious are especially appealing to consumers looking to save time.
Workshop Question - How is your brand prioritizing convenient transitions to eco-conscious products/services for its customers?
