Our work
PROJECT case study
Reusable Sushi Container- sushi Jiro
Brief to eliminate single use plastic take-way containers from sushi chain across Australia. Introduction of non virgin materials, customer loyalty program to build credit for using re-usable tray, end of life return for discount on replacement.
The practicical design elements of the re-usable sushi take away container included housing soy without spilling, condiments and even a nook for your chop sticks. The design improved usability, user experience and personalisation.
Using 100% recycled HDPE from Singapore, sustainable impact was measured from across the life cycle compared to single use plastic container.
Even factoring washing cycles (dishwasher) over lifetime, this container’s Co2 footprint was less impactful after avoiding three single use plastic containers.
workshop case study
DECARBONISATION TO PRODUCTS- Monash University
Design sprint workshop series using design thinking methodology to tackle large scale decarbonisation across research, energy sector, government and project stakeholders. Workshop facilitation for over 80 professionals.
DISCOVER- Understand current technology, research, impact, sector challenges, infrastructure, environmental impacts.
DEFINE- Key challenges to large scale decarbonisation and implementation for product solutions identified and selected best areas of exploration for novel solutions.
CREATE- Day workshop of problem solutions and idea’s captured. Leading three solutions developed futher with research and industry partners.
Solutions from these workshops were researched and developed into carbon sequestering products. The work was conducted by a core team of Monash researchers, professionals and government representatives.
