Towards renewable materials

50% of plastics are single-use. Renewable materials are the future

Designing for renewable materials

With 50% of plastics being single-use, transitioning to renewable materials is critical for creating a sustainable future. At FLEX/design, we specialize in designing innovative, sustainable alternatives that meet business requirements while aligning with consumer behavior and regulatory demands. With material innovations or the transition from plastic to advanced paper and paper pulp packaging solutions, we help businesses navigate the shift toward renewable materials, ensuring compliance, efficiency, and creative excellence.
