Abstract: Eco-friendly food carrier is a form of environmentally friendly packaging that often made of recycled or renewable materials that’s safe and sustainable for both individuals and the environment. The main features of sustainable packaging are produces little to no environmental waste, made from reusable or biodegradable packaging materials and safe for people and the environment. The problem is especially important when we consider that, the use of materials and design of food containers which better and more practical. Besides, a possible cause of this problem is practical food carrier containers can reduce the safety problems of transported food and space utilization, as well as maintain food quality and this problem also has negatively impact on the environment because the use of plastics as food containers disrupts the global ecosystem. Objective that needs to be achieved is design and develop a practical " Eco-Friendly Food Carrier", to study the strength of materials and design of "Eco-friendly Food Carrier" in packaging engineering and to ensure the food safety, quality preserved, and easy to carry. In addition, this study was conducted through experimental design as well as the method used to complete this project also through quantitative methods. We distributed the questionnaire to the public and a total of 45 respondents, from the percentage of 72% females and 28% males. The results of the questionnaire show that this eco-friendly food carrier is very easy to handle food, remain heat resistant, save food space at a time and easy to carry anywhere. For conclusion, each experiment performed must be appropriate for the project to succeed well. In addition, the need for environmentally friendly packaging is increasing as global temperature problems increase. One of its advantages is that it helps the environment. From an economic perspective, making lightweight materials helps the manufacturing industry save money and produce less waste that can better preserve the environment.
