We believe that the symbols on packaging create their own language and leave a lasting impression on the minds of consumers. Packaging is not only a carrier of a product, but also a transmitter of a message. We believe that just like the material itself, the symbols printed on packaging leave a meaningful trace in the minds of people.

In 1970, during a university competition held in the United States, the recycling symbol was designed by Gary Anderson, a 23 year old graphic design student. Since then, it has become one of the most powerful icons of global environmental awareness.

This special workshop, hosted by the Turkish Design Foundation at Kuzguncuk Pier and led by Packoroma, reinterpreted the concept of sustainability by focusing on Bio-Roma, our 100% natural and compostable product.
