75% Less Packaging. 100% Smarter.
Due August 31st, 2010 -
The concept is simple. “75% Less Packaging. 100% Smarter.”
The challenge is using your creativity to show us just exactly how that theme comes to life in an entertaining video of 2 minutes or less.
Bag vs Box
The leading box brand cereals come in a bag inside of a box. (Isn't that a little redundant?) But all varieties of Malt-O-Meal cereals come without the box. Just a bag of great tasting cereal, which means 75% less packaging to dispose of. Good for you, good for the environment.
Recycling helps, but only 44% of the paper, corrugate and paperboard packaging consumed annually is actually recycled.
If all cereal came in bags alone, instead of boxes with bags, U.S. households could reduce their paperboard use by 375 million pounds per year.
Malt-O-Meal cereals are more than just a better value - they're an earth friendly choice!
