Stacked Compact Lunch Boxes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Compleat Modular Comes with a Chopping Board and Place Mat

— September 19, 2013 — Lifestyle
Based on the country’s proud tradition of using lunch boxes, Norway-based product development company Unikia’s ‘Compleat Modular’ lunch box set is a fine way to bring your lunch out in style. With four different waterproof boxes—including a large rectangular box for large food items such as sandwiches, two smaller square boxes and a miniature rectangle box—the Compleat Modular is a fully adaptable carry-around set.

Priced at approximately $39, the lunch box set also comes with a tight adhesive sleeve that wraps around all four boxes when stacked with each other. The sleeve, when opened, can double up as a place mat, and also comes with an integrated chopping board. If one chooses to take a small lunch with them, the three smaller boxes can be all placed within the one large box to ensure its contents remain unseparated, effectively saving space inside your bag.
Trend Themes
1. Modular Lunch Boxes - Modular lunch boxes with a variety of compartments that can be customized to fit individual needs offer opportunities for further innovation in personalization and convenience.

3. Dual-function Accessories - Multifunctional accessories such as the integrated chopping board in the Compleat Modular lunch box set are gaining popularity, creating opportunities for innovation in dual-purpose items.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - Innovative lunch box designs are disrupting traditional food packaging in the food and beverage industry.
2. Retail - The rise in demand for practical, durable and eco-friendly everyday products indicates a potential for lunch boxes in the retail industry.
3. Housewares and Home Furnishings - The practicality of modular lunch boxes and the convenience of dual-function accessories represent opportunities for new product designs in the housewares and home furnishings industry.
