Target Market:
Uni students / coffee
drinkers / needing caffeine hit at times when coffee shops aren’t open /
Problem:
- Having a coffee outside of
home but is inconvenient to carry coffee/tea, sugar, milk, hot water, mug
Following Consumer Macro trends:
- Needs to include
sustainable/recyclable/reusable element/biodegradable
Research:
- Folding cup nets
Development:
Cup needs to conform to
these standards in order to properly function
- Functioning Net
Folds easily, opens with
enough space to hold liquid
Fast and mass producible
- Waterproof
Must remain leak free for at
least 10 minutes
- Resist Heat
Needs to be able to be held with boiling water in it
Needs to be able to be held with boiling water in it
- Sealable
So that the tea/coffee/milk
powder/sugar does not leak throughout the bag
- Non toxic, Clean
Clean, chemical free, able
to be easily consumed without cleaning or preparation first
Folding the cup- explore :
The folds in the material need to be scored in
order to fold tidily.
Extra lines need to be scored to account for
stress fracturing during the folding otherwise the cardboard splits and leaks.
The cover of the cup, which keeps it in folded
shape and stops it from springing open, also doubles as a heat protector to
stop your hands from being burnt, and secures the cups base which is wobbly
after the folds.
