Another impressive packaging news here. Ever thought of a green pack as your food packaging? Something like this:
On these pics you can see a banana leaf used as a take-away pack. The leaf is, on one hand, flexible and can take shapes, roll, bend and stuff. On the other hand, the leaves last long after they are cut from the trees. I am not sure how long, but taking a piece of food on the go looks like a perfect idea.
The idea has been in use for ages in the South East Asia area (see examples here, for example), but never got any development in the western culture. I guess, there is a reason for that. We don’t grow banana trees here in the Russian freezers, for example, and how many efforts it should take to bring the leaves all the way here. Suppose, you have started bringing the leaves, and you are ready to cover all the costs of using this eco-friendly packaging. How friendly this eco-friendly idea will become after it is put to practice everywhere? So, the idea is just great, but as long as it used where it is supposed to be used…
