Solution: Infinitely reusable food to go box and cutlery. Owner: Street Food Box Limited. Circular Strategy: Reuse.
Description
Street Food Box® believe it should be easy for everyone to enjoy fabulous street food and food to go, without feeling guilty about adding another throw-away carton to our ever-growing waste mountain. Heralding the change from single use to re-use in the food to go packaging arena.
The mantra – Eat, Rinse, Sleep, Repeat® – is simple because the solution to reducing food to go packaging waste is reuse rather than recycling.
Street Food Box is compact and convenient, folds flat when not in use and fits into a washable pouch. You can carry one with you all the time and after use, just pop it into its waterproof pouch and wash once back home.
