SavePaste eliminates the frustration that comes with trying to squeeze that last bit of [toothpaste out of the tube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charcoal-toothpaste1). While traditional toothpaste tubes make it difficult to get everything out, SavePaste makes it easy with its rectangular design.

SavePaste also combines the packaging with the actual product by using a [cardboard production](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetra-prisma-aseptic-300-edge); eliminating the waste of resources and costly man power. Designers Sang Min Yu and Wong Sang Lee created SavePaste with a user-friendly aesthetic in mind and included a slide cap rather than a screw-on one.

If you find yourself squeezing your life away, then SavePaste will definitely bring some precious time back to you.
