Approach
Perpetual supports local communities in their desire for reusable foodware systems that are safe, equitable, accessible, immersive, and economically sustainable. Perpetual is working with four smaller U.S. cities to design and implement city-scale open-loop reusable foodware systems.
-
Vision
City-scale reusable foodware systems would allow consumers to borrow reusable cups and/or containers from anywhere they normally purchase food and drinks, such as restaurants, cafeterias, gas stations, convenience stores, and music venues, and return them when they are done, either in the same location or at one of many collection bins around the the city.
