Pringles Can

Here is a list of the dimensions of the Pringles Can:

Lid= 3 in.

Can= 2 15/16 in.

Height= 10 ½ inches

A of pringle= 2.5

Area of circle 6.77

Volume of Can: 22.65

Surface Area of Can: 55.2 in squared

My new container would be a box, and it would have 6 stacks of 13 Pringles, that way it would hold all of the Pringles the can would. I think this is a better choice, because people will have easier access to the chips, than in the can.

Dimensions of new container:

Box Height: 2.5 in

Box length: 3 in

box width: 5 in

Volume of Box. 37.5 in Cubed

Surface area of Box: 70 in squared

My results showed that there is some wasted space in the Pringles can. I think that with my new box, that no space would be wasted. The box would only take up the exact amount of space we would need. This could cut down on costs, and would make the box more compact. That way, people could store it almost anywhere.

The people who design containers should always go through this process. It is a way to make sure the customers get the most convenient product. This also saves the company money. The companies usually like it when they save money. That's why this is important to do.
