# Complete Lunch Kits Al Parque's Portable Lunch Box Design Totes a Salad, Sandwich and Drink By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2015-04-23 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-lunch-box References: [packagingoftheworld](http://www.packagingoftheworld.com/2015/04/al-parque.html) & [aldasbrand](http://www.aldasbrand.com/) The portable lunch box packaging for Al Parque was crafted around the idea that "food tastes better when shared with friends," especially in an outdoor setting like a picnic. In order to make transportation easy, the Aldas Brand agency created a [compact box that could fold out](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-moving-box-table) to reveal slots for a sandwich, a drink, as well as a soup or a salad container. Even on a windy day, the secure slots in this packaging make sure that no wrappers or containers have the chance to blow away. Taking inspiration from a traditional picnic basket, the single-serving box contains a handle at the top for easy carrying. In terms of construction, the box is made from an [eco cardboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/placon-crystal-seal-delectables) that's held together with a water-based glue, complete with detailing printed using only a single color of ink. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.8/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 97% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: South America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Eco-friendly Packaging:** Opportunities for businesses to innovate towards environmentally sustainable packaging. - **Compact and Secure Design:** Opportunities for businesses to create mobile and secure packaging for outdoor use. - **Multipurpose Containers:** Opportunities for businesses to create versatile packaging that can hold multiple types of food and drink items. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** Opportunities for the food and beverage industry to create more convenient and innovative packaging options for customers. - **Outdoor Recreation:** Opportunities for businesses in the outdoor recreation industry to provide compact and secure food storage solutions for customers. - **Printing and Packaging:** Opportunities for businesses in the printing and packaging industry to develop more sustainable and efficient methods for creating product packaging. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Convenience-Focused Lunch Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lunch-bundle.md) - [Origami-Inspired Lunch Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foldibox-2.md) - [Combinational On-the-Go Food Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beltur-go.md) - [Ultra-Compact Freezable Lunch Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freezable-lunch-box.md) - [Collaborative Bento-Style Meal Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onthego-meal-kit.md) - [Vibrant Freezable Lunch Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freezable-lunch-boxes.md) - [Eco-Friendly Insulated Lunch Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/insulated-lunch-bag.md) - [Self-Heating Solar-Powered Lunchboxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunnyside-lunchbox.md) - [Sleek Compartmentalized Lunch Carriers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/venn-bento-box.md)
