The Pen Packaging by AJOTO
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Packaging Design / Luxury / 2021
AJOTO is a UK-based pen manufacturer that was founded in 2011. Its aim is to celebrate the precision of advanced engineering with the soul of craft to create timeless tools that last a lifetime. Its new pen packaging embodies all of these values by combining highly sustainable materials. The use of reclaimed cork and FSC paper to create thoughtfully tactile packaging has eliminated the need for the unnecessary use of single-use plastics. The consideration of both the aesthetic and practical needs has been perfectly balanced with the cork tray designed to transform into a pen rest once opened.
