MO:BEN by Alex Cheong is a sleek food container that has a built-in heating element to warm your food. The compact reusable container was inspired by the functionality and simplicity of Japanese bento boxes. The MO:BEN also contains two utensils, and comes apart for easy cleaning. A very nice design that eliminates disposable packaging waste, and could be a great help when there are no nearby options to heat up food.

Hi there,
We’ve noticed this product concept from the 2009 Australian Design Award-James Dyson Award has caught your interest and we wanted to say thank you for the write up.
Just to give you a quick update, this project is now one of thirteen Australian product concepts that have made it through into the global James Dyson Award- a competition that spans 21 countries to identify the best young inventors from around the world. From 16 June – 12 July 2009, your readers can vote for this project or another entry in the James Dyson Award on http://www.jamesdysonaward.org. FYI- From each country, the project which receives the most votes will get an automatic entry as a shortlist and the chance to win the grand prize of £10,000 for themselves and another £10,000 for their university!
