It is a matter close to our hearts that up-and-coming designers have the opportunity to work with cartonboard, as it offers many advantages. Cartonboard is a packaging material with the highest recycling rate which offers a truly circular packaging solution.
We invite teachers, lecturers and professors to work on the Pro Carton Young Designers Award and to use it as a course project or course assignment.
We are happy to provide your students with materials and expertise to assist with this assignment. We offer the following services for courses and classes:
- You can order folding carton and cartonboard sheets free-of-charge for the practical design work which is part of the Award. We are very grateful to our partners for this: MM Board and Paper & Metsä Board.
- Free downloads of our latest publications
- The involvement of an industry expert to join one of your sessions, via a video call!
It doesn’t matter if you are teaching Packaging Design, Industrial Design, Product Design, Graphic Design or Structural Design … everyone is welcome to innovate and design packaging for a better world!
In the first instance, please email the awards coordinator. They will contact you to tell you all about this great opportunity and provide you with everything you need to be successful!
