Hi Core77,

I was hoping to get a little bit of feedback from you!
I’m a product design student from UWIC Cardiff and am starting my final year undergraduate project which is aiming to improve energy gel packaging usability and sustainability.
I’d love any feedback on the topic and have put together a quick questionnaire that If you have used energy gels before I would appreciate it if you could find the time to fill out this quick 10 question survey.

Many Thanks!Feel free to pm me or message me if you have any advice and please post up examples of what you feel is a good example of well designed sustainable packaging cheers.

I am a competitive cyclist and love energy gel. No matter how careful I am, I always end up with a little gel left over on the packaging or on the end. I generally eat the gels on the bike, and stick the wrapper back in my jersey pocket. No matter how careful I am, I always end up with left over gel coating the inside of my jersey pocket, which is a hassle to wash.
