12 notable packaging innovations in 2009

One blogger’s perspective calls attention to packages from around the world that consider sustainability and also answer functional needs with defining structural designs.

SI Editor Jim George has come across another perspective on noteworthy packaging innovation in 2009, this from blogger and international print media journalist Anton Steeman.
