Circular Design and The Reusable Pizza Box: PIZZycle
b'
Our planet depends on a future where sustainable design is prioritised. A single use economy has never made sense with human consumption of the earth\\u2019s natural resources at an all-time high. So, every industry, including design has a responsibility to consider how they create: from material to production and ensuring high quality products with the longest, most sustainable life cycle. \\xa0
So I\\u2019m delighted to bring you today\\u2019s guest, Marlene Bruch who is the Co-Founder and Designer of PIZZycle\\xa0and she is also the curator of the sustainable design news page, Green Designs.
Marlene studied at HfG Offenbach in Germany where PIZZycle, a reusable and recyclable pizza box was developed through her own observations of the rise of single use takeaway containers during the pandemic. Marlene and the team are currently exhibiting PIZZycle at trade shows and it has recently relaunched with a new design ready for production.
As a design student, Marlene\\u2019s passion for promoting and creating purposeful climate conscious designs is so encouraging as we discuss the current status of the industry, ethical materials, the circular economy, and of course behind the scenes of PIZZycle.
I hope you enjoy the episode.
