‘Green Box’ Pizza Box

How is this for an excellent bit of eco-branded, urban lifestyle conservation?

Environmentally Conscious Organization (e.c.o.), Inc. is a design and licensing firm, dedicated to improving outmoded, outdated and wasteful food packaging. e.c.o. is marketing its first product, the ‘Green Box’ (US Patent 7,051,919), a pizza box manufactured from 100% recycled material. The top of the ‘Green Box’ breaks down into convenient serving plates, eliminating the need for disposable plates. The remainder of the box converts easily into a handy storage container, eliminating the need for plastic wrap, tin foil or plastic bags. The perforations and scores that create this functionality allow for easy disposal into a standard-sized recycling bin. Made from a standard pizza blank, the ‘Green Box’ requires no additional material or major redesign and can therefore be produced at no additional manufacturing cost. e.c.o. owns the utility patent on the ‘Green Box.’

I rarely comment on videos but I couldnt help noticing that inventions (or, as I like to call them, "lifestyle redesigns") such as this should work their way into the mainstream extremely easily. Problem is... is cutting them "cost effective"? I really hope so....

Hello Hamption - Thanks for your positive feedback! To answer your question, the additional functionality of the GreenBox is achieved by adding just a few extra perforations and scores to the standard pizza box. Given that no additional material or major redesign is needed, the GreenBox can therefore be produced at no additional manufacturing cost. Best, the GreenBox Team
