Abstract:
Convertible packaging is designed to provide greater convenience, versatility, and
sustainability, as it allows for easier storage, transportation, and reuse of packaging materials. This
study was to analyse and design a convertible package that can be easily converted and placed in
easily accessible locations such as homes, workplaces, and leisure areas to ensure the convenient
availability of the "Sesbania Grandiflora & quot; tea product for potential consumers. The
research goals included using stackable shapes in making conversions; analysing existing Sri Lankan
convertible export packaging shapes to map out the issues of using the locally generated shapes;
overcoming the issues identified by introducing a convertible shape that can be adaptable for shelf
display and consumer usage; and testing the adaptability of the newly developed shape, to fit a
targeted audience. Convertible packaging can be ideally implemented in industries that require
versatility, convenience, and sustainability, such as the food and beverage industry, where it can be
used for single-serve portions. This convertible packaging for “Sesbania Grandiflora” tea is to be
combined with a variety of factors, such as flexible materials, mind-soothing graphics, light pastel
colour schemes, and interactive product arrangement, to make the product a behaviour prompt. This
study shows the possibilities to create and design functioning convertible export packaging for
“Sesbania Grandiflora” tea to be used as a diabetic supplement drink and a behaviour reinforcement
beverage in the US market.
