What if you could win over $10,000 just for your eco-friendly idea?  Your idea be a great way to reduce the use of the plastic packaging that manufactures use on an already packaged product.  Your idea could also be a way to reduce the waste caused when people use single- use plastics and then discard them.

Machines Italia has just announced the second annual Plastic Technologies Award Design Competition.  Figure out a way to reduce the use of convenience packaging or replace products that are just needed once or twice and then get thrown away.  Once you do that, submit your entry.  You can contribute to a cleaner planet and win the design contest.

Examples of excess packaging are the blister packages that product are put in to help prevent theft. The packaging to make it easier to display the products in retail stores, too.  Can you think of a better way to help stores display products securely and easily without the use of blister packaging?

Maybe one of our readers will be the winner?  What is your best idea for reducing waste caused convenience packaging and one-time use products?  We’d love to hear what you think.
