# Eco-Friendly Sandwich Bags BlueAvocado 'Re(Zip)' Reusable Lunch Bags Deter Single-Use Product Use By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2016-03-10 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reusable-lunch-bags References: [thegreenhead](http://www.thegreenhead.com/2016/03/blueavocado-rezip-reusable-lunch-bags.php) & [blueavocado](http://www.blueavocado.com/) Sandwich bags are notorious for being a great way to waste plastic, so BlueAvocado 'Re(Zip)' reusable lunch bags are designed for continued usage. Rather than encouraging one to pack a bag, remove the contents and toss the sack, the BlueAvocado 'Re(Zip)' design is intended for multiple uses. The leak-proof design of the BlueAvocado 'Re(Zip)' allows it to keep food fresh until lunch or as a way to store items in the fridge or freezer. The [FDA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duck-duck-books)-grade plastic used to make the reusable lunch bags is PVC-free, lead-free and even BPA-free. Assorted color options allow the BlueAvocado 'Re(Zip)' to be incorporated in the home in a variety of ways. They can also help to decrease the amount of plastic waste produced by the average family. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 63% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Reusable Food Storage:** Opportunity for companies to create environmentally-friendly and sustainable kitchen products such as reusable food bags or container sets. - **Eco-friendly Packaging:** Innovative approaches to packaging design that focus on reusable and sustainable materials, such as biodegradable, compostable plastics or plant-based fibers. - **Zero-waste Movement:** Growing consumer demand for companies to offer products and services that minimize waste or offer recyclable or biodegradable packaging in an effort to reduce environmental impact. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Kitchenware:** Companies in this industry can capitalize on sustainable kitchen products, such as reusable food storage, to appeal to eco-conscious customers. - **Packaging:** As consumer demand for eco-friendly options grows, businesses in the packaging industry have an opportunity to innovate new, environmentally-responsible packaging materials and design. - **Grocery Retail:** Grocery retailers can reduce their environmental impact by offering sustainable alternatives to single-use plastic bags or wrapping, such as reusable bags or compostable packaging. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [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) - [Freezable Snack Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freezable-snack-box.md) - [Reusable Malleable Food Containers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reusable-seal-tray.md) - [Reusable Produce Seals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/food-huggers-1.md) - [Compact On-The-Go Freezable Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freezable-market-tote.md) - [Eco-Friendly Kids Lunchware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duck-duck-books.md) - [Durable Food Storage Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ziploc-endurables.md) - [Resealable Lettuce Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sensei-farms.md)
