The shapes of everyday plastic

Every day we use plastic containers with the most disparate shapes that contain detergents of different types, an infinite number of creams, medicines, drinks, foods, garden and home care products, lubricating oils and other liquids for the maintenance of the car and other machines, deodorants, shampoos, insecticidal sprays and many other bottles for a thousand uses.

The shapes are often very different, some gratify us, others annoy us at first contact. Some seem to have been created for our hands, to be held and used exactly for the action we are carrying out, for the most part we don't even notice it as their ergonomics are natural.

Others that we perhaps find beautiful, with a refined and innovative design and then appear uncomfortable and unpleasant to touch when used.

The design of a bottle with attractive and distinctive shapes plays entirely between aesthetic, visual, tactile pleasure and ergonomics.
Many times it is precisely the study of greater efficiency, the pursuit of better functionality that leads to pleasant and innovative shapes. Other times trying to make aesthetic improvements or looking for ways to resolve production critical issues gives unexpected ergonomic improvements.

At Plastivalle we try to achieve the balance in each new project that makes the new container we are going to produce beautiful and functional.
