Eating patterns have changed – instead of preparing three meals a day, many people now snack on convenience food. As a result, there’s a growing demand for packaging that’s smart, eco-friendly and easy-to-use. How can brands use innovative design to meet the needs of these conscious consumers?

Zero Waste as a movement is not embodied by festivals, websites or organisations, but by bloggers and YouTubers who have a collective desire for polished beauty and a clean, minimalist aesthetic. How are these extremely eco-conscious consumers minimising their impact on the planet?

It's sustainable. Many grocers have tried to solve the packaging waste problem, but Berlin-based supermarket Original Unverpackt thinks it has the answer. Replacing boxed or encased grocery items with bulk-bin style shopping, the supermarket is entirely packaging-free.

The Body Shop has long been known for its eco-friendly principles. And it's once again living up to its green reputation by announcing a new scheme that will reduce the brand's consumption of plastic made from oil by as much as 70% by the end of 2020.
