Logoplaste Innovation Lab wins iF Design Award for its Vimágua water bottle
The Logoplaste Vimágua water bottle has been awarded with the iF Design Award in the category “Packaging Design / Beverages”. Each year, Germany’s oldest independent design organisation, Hannover-based iF International Forum Design GmbH, organises the iF Design Award. This year’s award ceremony took place in the BMW Welt in Munich, Germany, on March 10, 2017.
Vimágua is a reusable, eco-friendly, 100% recyclable and lightweight water bottle, created to be offered to the local school communities. The bottle is said to be a mission to promote the consumption of tap water and raise awareness among the young, on the importance of water to the environment and health. The design, inspired by both the drop and the water surface ripple effect, is ergonomic for children and is meant to fit in a small lunch bag. The 450ml PET bottle weights 25g, and its manufacturing process uses less energy, when compared to reusable bottles produced in other materials. The PP cap is also optimised and weights 1.3g.
