Replaces single-use packaging with packaging that can be used again, is easy to find, cheap, and better for the environment.
The idea behind reCIRCLE is easy, and it is already being used in 6 European countries. It replaces the disposable packaging of takeout food with high-quality containers and cups with lids that can be washed and heated in the microwave. The products are made of long-lasting plastic that can be recycled after hundreds of uses. The new thing is how networks, products, and services all work together. It is good for restaurants that want to pack their food and drinks in a way that is stylish and good for the environment. It is also good for people who want to eat on the go without wasting food. It works like a deposit system, and you can return and swap products at any of the partner restaurants. The products never lose value, and they can be returned in any condition as long as the lid is still there. So, the circle is closed, and people can use a circular economy and zero-waste packaging in their everyday lives.
