/ PEZ-BOX FISH TRANSPORT /
THE PROBLEM
Carrier transport for FISH is due to STRESS and Dangerous.
THE CHALLENGE
Starting from the challenge of making a cardboard carrier for fish, it solves problems and limitation of current methods.
THE RESEARCH
I interviewed fish-business owner and fish owner to understand what was the point of view of the expert and they let me discover that transport for fish is a very stressful journey and they may even die.
After collecting this information I was able to test myself the process and collect some more information.
THE SOLUTION
Pez-Box adds new features thanks to a particular shape and graphic that improve also the sales.
/ What is Better /
Changes in temperature are hazardous for fish, so Pez-Box is made of thermally insulating material.
The sun exposure of the plastic bag, commonly use, due to release of toxic substances, so Pez-Box is made to protect the plastic bag by the cardboard.
This normal plastic bag has 2 hours autonomy (caused by the lack of air exchange), after that the fish dies of asphyxiation, so Pez-Box gives the opportunity to open bag safetly without of water leaks.
The plastic bag has an high risk of breaking, so Pez-Box has resistant materials and structural folds studied since the origami.
/ How it Works /
Pez-Box is sold non-bent to optimize the space in which it is placed.
The operation is very simple:
- by pressing on the tip below it is open and is ready yo receive the water and the fish
- once set the water and added the fish the upper portion of the handle overlaps the opposite one
- by inserting the cable tie the box makes it safe for transportation.
