These safe plastic containers designed by Colombian agency imasD do a great job of displaying the [fresh produce](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruit-bliss) of client Pomario. The product is amplified on store shelves thanks to its rustic approach to design and given that the packaging allows for consumers to view the luscious produce behind the container's label. Given that it is made from a safe plastic, consumers can also trust that the product isn't gaining toxins in the process.

Pomario is a Medellin-based brand producing natural and locally sourced [edible flowers, sprouts and mesclun](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/herb-storage-container). The healthy eats are packaged stylishly in a way that connects to the brand's concept of fresh, all-natural wholesome greens by designing safe plastic containers that resemble the boards used to name crops in an orchard.
