Indian brand Utilaa Group has designed a plastic-free disposable razor made from paper and inspired by flying wingsuit design concept and origami based folding as a response to the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals.
"Inspired by the plastic-free Sustainable Development Goals concepts, we are commercializing the world's first 'Eco Razor'," said Utilaa Group. The plastic-free razor's head and blade are made from metal, while the handle is constructed using water-resistant card stock that allows it to be used while wet.
Utilaa said that "Eco Razor aims to transform the razor into a plastic-free item and reduce plastic emissions. We adopted paper for the handle and metal for the blade and head. It is made of 98 per cent paper and two per cent water resistant coating. Only the blade part, including the entire head, is made of metal. Rather than simply replacing plastic with paper, we designed the handle to be just as easy to hold and as durable as a plastic razor."
It has a lightweight, flat pack design that needs to be folded to create the blade's handle and is held together by a small piece of tape that is used as a protective covering on the blade.
