Easystack is a unified set of trays, designed for easy stacking and quick breakdown for storage. We observed that 7-eleven often struggles to pack various cooked foods into different containers. Given that 7-eleven manages thousands of products, reducing the effort involved in food packing is essential for streamlining operations.

To address this challenge, we opted for a unified design. We used trays with the same length and width for all food items. It not only reduces the complexity of the packing process but also minimizes waste, further contributing to sustainability efforts. It has been materialized by adding triangular cuts to support on each corner of the tray. Another key consideration was to ensure the safety of the products during delivery. The flexibility of paperboard has enabled us to design to fit each tray snugly, preventing spills or falling.

Making a meal with a drink has been an obstacle due to the size of the beverage, which has been overcome by the corrugated sleeve. It added the strong hold on beverage. All our packaging modules are designed to knock down flat, making them easier to handle, store, and collect.

Our design is not only handy but also practical. We hope our packaging concept brings up the consideration for real-world applications.
