This video is part of the Redesigning Food: Behind the scenes video series, where we experience the barriers, setbacks, and breakthrough moments as participants of the Big Food Redesign Challenge race to create products that put nature first.


In episode four, the spotlight is on packaging. Can our pioneers ensure their packaging avoids problematic materials, while achieving as many circular economy goals as possible?

Highlights from this episode include:

  • Meal-in-a-Jar producers, Porcus, jet off to Germany to refine their jarring processes and explore innovative solutions

  • Porridge pioneers, Spoon Cereals, and Vincent from Dunia Bora tackle tricky packaging problems head-on

  • Agüita Divina, makers of an alcoholic seltzer, face a unique struggle: the shortage of traditionally skilled tradespeople to manufacture their bottles

The Big Food Redesign Challenge, in partnership with the Sustainable Food Trust and supported by the players of People’s Postcode Lottery, Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, and Schmidt Family Foundation, brings together ambitious producers, retailers, start-ups, and suppliers to design new food products – or redesign existing ones – to regenerate nature. Currently in the Production Phase, participants are working hard to turn their product designs into a reality.
