According to their website, Help Remedies was created to make solving simple health issues simple. We find the best solution there is, and take away everything else. By stripping away some of the complexity and fear mongering of the health industry, we hope to make medicine friendlier and more accessible, and in doing so empower people to make their own health decisions.
Band Aids and first aid essentials are packaged in molded paper pulp and a bio plastic made primarily of corn and use these materials because "they are interesting to look at, and they are compostable—which means one day, they might become part of a large tree". There is a real time video image actually counting down the amount of time it is taking to breakdown one of there packages. At the time of this post it was 12 days, 19 hours, 38 minutes and 17 seconds. See what the package looks like now.
I especially appreciate the compassionate message that goes along with each the bandage - see below...

The iconic and ubiquitous first aid kit from Johnson & Johnson recently underwent a remodel where designer, Harry Allen, reduced the amount of material used in the box by using a thinner plastic but strength was not compromised because of the innovative shape. "The resulting design puts the user first. It stands on end for ease of storage; the built in handle provides grab and go efficiency while maintaining the smallest possible profile; the color scheme is an eye-catching red and white and the red cross is brought back front and center."
Theses are great ideas that can be implemented today for the same person who is considering purchasing CF lightbulbs as replacements for incandescent that have burnt out and represents a small example of an innovative solution that is at the intersection of sustainability, reliability and good design.
I haven't tried them yet, have you? Let us know how they compare to the traditional products by posting a comment below.
