A Reusable Bottle towards Consumers’ Purchase and Use Behaviour

At: NVC Netherlands Packaging Centre

This bachelor thesis assignment was commissioned by NVC Netherlands Packaging Centre. It examines the reason for the booming consumption of bottled water in China and develops the conceptual design of a reusable bottle, which can potentially influence consumers' purchase behaviour and use behaviour, in order to reduce the bottled water consumption in China and end plastic packaging as an environmental issue. The final concept is a collapsible, multi-purpose bottle with Chinese cultural characteristic packaging.
