Eatables

It’s never been this easy to be good.

Eatables instant meals minimize packaging waste without increasing recycling contamination rates. We removed the need for recycling by making the packaging edible. Our technology can combat recycling contamination and reduce its associated environmental and financial costs.

Problem

Companies still package items in plastic due to cost complacency. Despite rising demands for sustainable alternatives, the end-of-life responsibility for these products is still on the consumer. This leads to high (25%) recycling contamination rates.

Solution

Remove the recycling burden from consumers. Eatables instant food & beverage packaging is edible and dissolvable in hot water.
