　　Menstrual cups are still stigmatized in Malaysia but there is a growing movement to be more eco-friendly. The Hivette menstrual cup by The Hive Bulk Foods is Malaysia's first locally-branded menstrual cup, as they determine in promoting a zero-waste lifestyle.

　　The objective is to create a limited-edition packaging to encourage the usage of cups, by framing it as your "BFF" during menstruation. The shape of the design is inspired by traditional beehives and table succulents. To reflect sustainability values, natural materials such as wood and cotton were used. The Hive also supports local causes, by incorporating handmade weaving techniques, it opens up an option for the limited packaging to be produced by refugees. The packaging also features a compartment for a batik-inspired patterned wet pouch, along with a leaflet slit.

　　By creating a more permanent packaging linked to the sustainable permanence of the product in a friendly, approachable manner, it is hoped to change how people view menstrual cups (and packaging!), eventually generating increased interest in usage.

　　What's Unique?

　　The menstrual cup lasts for up to 10 years, so I thought why not the packaging too? By designing it not as just something to protect the product and be thrown away, but also as display art when the cup is not in use. Origami accessories are attached through metal fasteners so they can be placed differently or removed, creating an interactive experience that doubles as a personalization option.

　　在马来西亚，“月经杯”仍然是一种耻辱，但越来越多的人开始倡导更加环保。Hivette月经杯是马来西亚第一个本土品牌的月经杯，他们决定推广零浪费的生活方式。

　　他们的目标是制作一款限量版的包装，通过把它包装成你在月经期间的“好朋友”来鼓励人们使用纸杯。设计的形状灵感来自于传统的蜂箱和餐桌上的多肉植物。为了体现可持续价值，使用了木材和棉花等天然材料。Hive还支持当地的事业，通过结合手工编织技术，它为难民生产的有限包装打开了一个选择。该包装还设有一个隔间蜡染启发图案湿袋，连同传单狭缝。

　　通过以一种友好、平易近人的方式创造一种更持久的包装，与产品的可持续持久性相联系，它希望改变人们对月经杯(和包装!)的看法，最终引起人们对使用的兴趣。

　　独特的是什么?

　　经期杯的保质期可以长达10年，所以我想为什么包装不能也一样呢?它的设计不仅是为了保护产品并被扔掉，而且在不使用的情况下作为一种艺术展示。折纸配件通过金属紧固件连接，因此它们可以被不同的放置或移除，创造了一种互动体验，同时也是一种个性化选择。
