In a sustainable world, we need to change our food industry and find alternative ways of producing, consuming and communicating food.

As the world's population grows, we use to increase our food production. There is also an increased demand from consumers to know more about food, how it is made, how it affects the environment, their health and the place where they live.

In the food area, transparency and facts are important keywords for the consumer, but today's labels and table of contents are difficult to interpret. It is difficult to choose which products best meet the consumer's needs and principles. The Foodtech project and research institute for Design will, among other things, investigate how visualization of information can be done with the aim of creating insights. Here, digital design solutions and packaging design are the focus.
