TapOut is a battery package that collects both used and unused batteries in one place. It also helps consumers store used batteries for recycling them properly.
To access your new battery you simply push and slide your «tapped out» battery into the perforated slot. And with the lid on top of the package, you’ll always know how many fully-charged batteries you have at your disposal.
When the battery pack is filled with used batteries, it is ready to be taken for recycling! No more misplaced batteries, neither at home or in the wrong trash bin.
Jury Comments
By Kemal Ozkirm - "This is a truly innovative and unique design. The packaging design is great because it is sustainable and multi-purpose, storing both old and new batteries. It also makes it easier for the consumer to recycle used batteries. This design provides a unique and value-adding alternative to the plastic packaging which currently exists."
