The [Brain Füd](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/indi-brain-bar) natural energy drinks have been relaunched by the brand with new packaging to make them a more sustainable option for consumers to pick up when seeking a way to hydrate and boost their energy levels.

The drinks are now packaged in 100% recyclable [Tetra Pak](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reef-rtd) cartons that are made from sustainably sourced paperboard rather than the traditional bottles or aluminum cans found on the market. This packaging is also resealable to help the product maintain a more mobile profile for consumers who are drinking it whilst on-the-go or partaking in a workout.

The Brain Füd natural energy drink packaging was explained by founder Philip Udeh who said, "Our move to Tetra Pak means that we’re not just smarter and cleaner than your average energy drink, but that Brain Füd can be enjoyed during active occasions, unlike so many other energy drinks in their aluminium cans. Whether at your desk, on the run or having fun – Brain Füd provides a fruity, refreshing way to be at your best, naturally."
