Glam Pack For Blood
The Sweet Donation Bag is an attempt to redesign the blood collection pouch. It features a sleeve with large cut-outs indicating the blood type (A, B, AB & O). The overall design is much more refined than the current bags in use and the packaging looks sturdy. If only the cut-outs would have indicated Type+ or Type- then I guess the impact would have been better. Slicker and tidier to look at; it won’t reduce the needle-prick pain!

Nice rebranding & I would like to see a further analysis of the hierarchy of the information needed but it doesn't seem to consider how blood is taken in the first place. Blood isn't transfered from bag to bag – it remains in the original bag it was taken in to help reduce exposure to anything that would reduce the shelf life of the blood. This also has a lot of plastic waste as none of the packaging is able to be recycled due to it being a biohazard. Even if this was a sleeve on the existing package, you'd have the same biohazard problem.

how are you supposed to centrifuge this bag and separate the red blood cells and the plasma? this is a great design but i do not think it offers much functionality

looks amazing.. however, how exactly would you be able to pack it with minimal wastage of space?

Actually, these would pack/stack better than the bags. Think of this… ////////// That's two layers of containers right there. lay one row flat side down. Put the next row, point down, in the valleys that are made by the first row.
