About Co-Grain اناج کی پیکیجنگ

کو-گرین ایک ایسا سیریل (اناج) پیکج ہے جسے پرندوں کے دانہ دان میں تبدیل کیا جا سکتا ہے۔ یہ پیکج زیادہ مضبوطی والے کرافٹ کاغذ سے تیار کیا گیا ہے، جس پر طباعت، کوٹنگ، ڈائی کٹنگ، چپکائی اور شکل سازی کا عمل کیا جاتا ہے۔ جب اناج معیادِ استعمال ختم ہونے سے پہلے استعمال نہ ہو سکے، تو ڈبے کو چار مراحل میں تبدیل کیا جاتا ہے۔ اوپری حصے میں موجود ایک ٹیئر رِنگ لٹکانے کے لیے ڈوری بناتی ہے، نچلا حصہ کھول کر ایک بریکٹ لگایا جاتا ہے تاکہ کھڑے ہونے کا پلیٹ فارم بن سکے، اور اندرونی سوراخ کو پھاڑ کر اناج تک رسائی دی جاتی ہے۔ یہ ڈیزائن خوراک کے ضیاع کو کم کرتا ہے اور شہروں میں پرندوں کو خوراک تلاش کرنے میں مدد دیتا ہے۔

Unique Properties
Co-Grain is an innovative cereal package. We wanted to give a new possibility to the package. When people buy the cereal and come home, if they can't finish it within the expiration date, they can transform the package into a simple bird feeder by following the instructions in the instructions and place it in a wooded area near your home, a park, or other places frequented by birds to provide them with some of your leftover cereal.

Production Technology
Co-Grain is a cardboard made of high-strength kraft paper, printed with packaging patterns and text, coated on the surface, then cut into sheets by die-cutting machines, followed by gluing and forming and pressing, and finally assembled into a complete grain package by adding the appropriate amount of grain and sealing it according to the quantity.
Design Challenge
During the design of the package, we found it difficult to satisfy the need to combine the structure of the bird feeder with the cereal package without increasing the cost of the cereal package. It was a big challenge for us to implement a platform for the birds to stand in the structure of the cereal package.
Research
We conducted extensive research on household cereal purchases and waste, the impact of urbanization on birds, and the coexistence of humans and urban birds. Through user interviews, user profiling, user journey maps and other design tools, we identified a design direction to use cereal packaging to address human cereal waste and promote urban bird survival. Our solution is Co-Grain, a cereal package that doubles as a bird feeder, promoting cereal sharing and coexistence between humans and birds.
Inspiration
We found that we would stock up on grains at home that we couldn't finish within their shelf life. While disposing of these wasted grains, I saw some birds eating the grains I had discarded, and I began to think about how difficult it is for birds to forage for food in the city in an era of rapid urbanization. Can we humans share the grains with the birds so that we can reduce the waste of grains, protect the birds and help them forage for food.
Project Duration
The project started in Hangzhou on January 2, 2023 and the research was conducted in Hangzhou on January 4, 2023 and ended in Hangzhou on January 17, 2023.
Operation Flow
This product is divided into internal and external structure, through a simple deformation of the cereal box into a bird feeder, to complete the conversion of cereal packaging to bird feeders requires a total of four steps: 1. pull open the tear ring at the top of the package to form a lanyard part hanging on the tree 2. tear the bottom of the cereal package along the dotted line detachable part, and snap out the bottom of the empty space 3. insert the bottom bracket into the groove to form a bird feeding standing 4. Finally, tear open the inner tear to provide a feeding opening for the birds.
