Social Purpose

Good Health & Wellbeing

What is the problem you found?

Too much medical rubbish going to waste.
Medicine containers in particular are a big creator of plastic waste that is often not recycled. 

What is your opportunity?

How might we reduce plastic waste produced by medicine containers?

Who is your audience?

We have two main customers:
1. Pharmacies
2. Those who use medicines.

What Is Your Solution?

Eco-friendly biodegradable packaging that can go back to Mother Earth once they have been used!

EcoPacks are eco-friendly packets for medicine. biodegradable blister packs. Made from recycled cardboard plants and seeds, and can be planted in the ground when you're done. 50% of profits go to helping less fortunate afford medication
 

Support Required

Connections

We believe that connecting with a university would be beneficial to our business as they have the facilities for us to do our research. 

Funding

We are searching for funding from the local council or a university to help us develop our idea. 

Advice

We would need advice from engineers on what materials to make our containers out of. 
 

Development

We need to talk to develop a working prototype to test our idea further.
