Accessible Packaging - WCR

Feedback from own tutor - Mariano Ramirez

The concept for packaging is complex and will be expensive to manufacture, and will therefore not be a good idea for juice packaging. The packaging will end up more expensive than the product. If I want to go with one of these concepts, I have to find another product, which is more expensive and you only use a bit of every single time so it last for longer.
The first concept is not that innovative and is seen before in personal care, and it is not a good idea to use packaging from personal care for food and beverage.

Feedback from peers

Ole Andre Bech: There can be some problems with concept 2 under the transportation, because the pipe can by an accident be pushed in and then will the beverage run out.

Clark Hou: Maybe you could make a solution for concept 2, where the user have to assemble the parts when they have bought it. Then you don´t have the problem under transportation.
There can occur friction between the cap´s inside and the two small buttons, when the pipe pops up.

Listening to other tutors - Tom

It is very important that you show with your concept an understanding for the accessibility issue you have chosen.
The product and packaging have to interact with each other - you have to understand the product you are making packaging for. Honey can both be liquid and solid, so if it is solid it makes no sense to make packaging where the user have to squeeze.

Reflection and plan of action for this week

It make a lot of sense that the packagings costs have to be compared with the products costs, so I will go find a new product, so the packagings costs will make more sense. Then I will make a thorough research of the product, so I understand possibilities and limits for packaging to exactly this product. Then I can begin on 2D and 3D developments.
