Osel BirchLimited-edition Packaging raises awareness for biodiversity loss in forests

This Design aims to bring into the discussion the importance of connecting ourselves with our origins and biodiversity in our day to day live.




According to WWF “below the Canopy” report, there is 53% decline in size of forest wildlife populations since 1970. Collecting birch water can add another 30 years of life for the forest and its eco-system. For example, when forest owners would usually sell their wood for timber as soon as it’s considered an “adult tree”, they could instead start collecting birch water for another 30 or so years. This would help the forest biodiversity to flourish for many more years.



With sustainability in mind, ÖselBirch offers that the life span of this object goes beyond consumption and that the bottle can be reutilized as a decoration element during your daily life.
