Eco-Belt

School:Bridgeport
Team:Ethan S, Julia W, Zach B, Alex B

When creating the design of the Hi-Cone Six Pack Eco-Belt, we had three key goals in
mind: That it’s easier to recycle than the original Hi-Cone product, that it does not present a
potential hazard to any sea life that may consume it if it does end up in the ocean, and that it be
as neutral as the original Hi-Cone product for branding. After a few hours of experimenting with
various methods of securing all six bottles, we eventually came to the idea of having one long
strap that wraps around all six bottles. Compared to other methods such as perforated sections
and experiments with suction cups, Eco-Belt proved to be the most secure under the weight of all
six bottles.
