Ekološka darilna embalaža za potico

Malc, Špela (author), Gregor Svetec, Diana (mentor)

Namen diplomskega dela je bil od ideje do končnega izdelka oblikovati embalažo za potico, ki bo kar se da ekološka, estetska in funkcionalna. Končni izdelek je embalaža za potico, ki je primerna za poslovna ali osebna darila. V teoretičnem delu smo predstavili embalažo v splošnem, podrobno smo opisali embalažo iz papirja, kartona in lepenke ter njene značilnosti, prednosti in slabosti. Prestavili smo tudi zahteve, ki jih mora embalaža za živila izpolnjevati. Raziskali in opisali smo ekološko embalažo in ekološko oblikovanje ter embalažo za poslovna darila. Naredili smo pregled, kakšne embalaže za potico se na trgu že pojavljajo in opisali njihove značilnosti. Eksperimentalni del obravnava preiskave materialov ter načrtovanje in izdelavo embalaže. Izbirali smo karton MetsäBoard Prime FBB Bright z gramaturo 330 g/m2, ki ustreza zahtevam embalaže za stik z živili. Izvedli smo metode preiskav za osnovne, mehanske in optične lastnosti materiala in opisali rezultate. Dodelali smo idejo za obliko in design embalaže in izrisali plašč. Izdelali smo embalažo z dodatno funkcionalnostjo. Ko embalaža odsluži svoj osnovno funkcijo zaščite izdelka, jo lahko spremenimo v ptičjo hranilnico. Na ta način smo embalaži podaljšali življenjsko dobo in s tem nekoliko zmanjšali njen vpliv na okolje. Embalažo smo natisnili, izrezali in sestavili ter jo tako pripeljali do končnega izdelka.

• Title: Ecological gift packaging for potica

Abstract

The aim of the diploma thesis was to design, from an idea to the final product, packaging for potica that would be as ecological, aesthetically pleasing and functional as possible. The final product is packaging for potica, suitable for corporate or personal gifting. In the theoretical part, we described packaging in general, detailing more packaging made from paper, paperboard and cardboard as well as their characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. We also presented requirements food packaging must comply with. Ecological packaging and design was studied and described, as was packaging for corporate gifting. We also studied what types of packaging for potica are available in the market and described their characteristics. The experimental part includes material testing as well as packaging design and its manufacturing. The MetsäBoard Prime FBB Bright paperboard with grammage of 330 g/m2, which complies with food packaging requirements, was selected. The basic, mechanical and optical characteristics of the material were determined. During planning of packaging our idea for the shape and design of the packaging was improved by drawing a base. Thus, packaging with an additional function was designed. When it stops serving its primary purpose of protecting a product, we can turn it into a birdhouse. In this way, service life of the packaging was prolonged and its impact on the environment reduced. The packaging was printed, cut and put together, representing our final product.
