Abstract
Various packaging system are used by edible oil industry. It is observed that consumer’s preference are least considered in such packaging. There are several convenient system are available to improve the ergonomic aspect for packaging of edible oil. This ergonomic aspect like handle, cap opening/closing, holding pattern during pouring and carrying etc. With proper consumer inputs and ergonomic principles, design research designers have developed edible oil jars in an attempt to make more Convenience to the consumers which can provide better maneuverability during use. This paper aims to display package design where principles of ergonomics were considered.
