Jordan graduated from the University of Huddersfield with a degree in product design in 2011. He was a product designer at Blue Sky Designs and worked on a freelance basis as product designer for Wilkinson’s before joining Woodlands Sheds as head of design in January 2012.
Innovations manager Ben Elkington, said: “Martin and James are two creative and talented individuals; working on the Freshware range will provide them with a perfect opportunity to demonstrate their artistic and innovative abilities by generating a series of high quality design concepts to meet the bespoke needs of our customers.”
LINPAC launched its Freshware range in January 2013.
The range is ideal for the growing ‘on-the-go’ consumer trend and includes a mix of single and multi-portion pack options to help consumers reduce food waste and live a healthier lifestyle.
