# Recycled Journal Branding Sustainable Duck Eggs Packaging Makes Resourceful Use of Paper Waste By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-12-17 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-duck-eggs-packaging References: [packagingoftheworld](http://www.packagingoftheworld.com/2013/12/sustainable-duck-eggs-packaging-student.html) & [linkedin](http://www.linkedin.com/pub/marian-obando/55/428/20a) Many "green" product wrapping initiatives may focus on simply reducing the consumption of material, but this example of sustainable duck eggs packaging goes a step further. Paper that has already served its first function is incorporated into this design, making it a very ecological solution. Marian Obando proposes the use of a [single sheet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lata-pancakes) of [discarded newspaper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/debatin) for constructing the basic egg carton. She folds it into a squared basket and tucks a bit of hay into the bottom for protective cushioning. Once the four full shells have been slipped into the sustainable duck eggs packaging, a strip of card is wrapped around the small recycled pannier to keep everything in place. This is printed with basic information about the product, for sale at farmers' markets. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 87% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sustainable Packaging:** Creating packaging solutions that utilize recycled materials and reduce waste. - **Circular Economy:** Implementing a system where materials are reused and repurposed, reducing the need for new resources. - **Eco-friendly Design:** Utilizing environmentally conscious materials and practices in product packaging and design. ### Where This Applies - **Food Packaging:** Exploring innovative ways to package food products sustainably and efficiently. - **Sustainable Agriculture:** Integrating eco-friendly practices into farming and agricultural production. - **Recycling and Waste Management:** Developing systems and technologies to efficiently collect, process, and repurpose waste materials. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Separating Eco Carton Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bruk-sustainable-packaging-design.md) - [Recyclable Butter Wrapper Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recyclable-paper-butter-wrap.md) - [Sustainable Carton-Style Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elopak-paperboard.md) - [Sustainable Easter Chocolate Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happi-1.md) - [Eco-Certified Eggshell Materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecoshell-llc.md) - [Recyclable Apple Packaging Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superfresh-growers-1.md) - [Gilded Free-Range Egg Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bird-bros-gloriously-golden.md) - [Sustainable Cafe Delivery Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-pulp-coffee-carrier.md) - [Paper-Made Shrink Wrap Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/traywrap.md)
