Matt Boyko, who was a visiting critic in our IDS class on Friday sent over this great image and information. He asked me to share it with all of you, but especially the GD + ID team who is exploring dairy. Greenbottle, designed by Martin Myerscough, is a biodegradable milk carton concept that features a unique two-part system to aid recycling and reduce landfill waste. The bottle is composed of a cardboard outer shell molded from pulped, recycled cardboard, lined with an inner sleeve of biodegradable corn starch plastic. Once the bottle is empty, the cardboard outer shell can be split open, removed and recycle or composted. The inner sleeve will decompose in a landfill within six weeks!There's all sorts of great information out on Greenbottle's website. Be sure to check it out.
