MAKING IT BETTER
CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
We believe that convenience doesn’t have to destroy our planet. That’s why we don’t compromise on quality, performance, or user experience. By combining traditional craftsmanship with innovative additive manufacturing principles, we are developing technology to print ultra-thin clay vessels to break our addiction to single-use plastic. Made with unaltered, natural materials that leave no environmental impact, our products are elegant, efficient, and sustainable by design. The real innovation lies in the customer experience we offer, by creating a truly versatile new product category that gives consumers a guilt-free choice over how and when to reuse. Enjoy a fine-china experience with the convenience of disposability that you deserve. And no, you won’t taste the clay.

MAKING IT SIMPLER
SUSTAINABILITY
Recycling is a time- and energy-intensive process. That’s why over 90% of all plastics ever produced have never been recycled. Instead, the vast majority ends up incinerated, or piling up in landfills and polluting our habitat. Even bioplastics and compostable plastics simply break down into microplastics and poison our water sources. Paper cups are lined with plastic too, creating a false belief that they are harmless. The real problem is not that plastic isn’t recyclable, but that it just doesn’t get recycled. We believe we have a responsibility to eliminate the negative impact of single-use products as we know them. That’s why our products are actually sustainable. We eliminate the need for recycling entirely because our materials are geo-neutral. What does this mean? We use only clay, water, and salt. Our materials are environmentally inert. They come from the earth and return back to earth without causing any harm. Just engineering from nature, for nature. That’s the promise of our drink to dust technology.

MAKING IT CHEAPER
LOCAL PRODUCTION
Our solution streamlines the life cycle and use the cycle of consuming food and beverages on the go, lowering the true cost for companies, people, and the planet. What do we mean by that? We manufacture our products in our decentralized micro-factories, source our sustainable raw materials locally, and serve local communities on demand using additive manufacturing techniques. By doing so, we significantly reduce our economic and environmental impact at every step. There are no hidden costs in making our geo-neutral products today, and no hidden costs of cleaning up any waste or pollution in the future. We are committed to always looking at the whole value chain of our service, and the ecosystem in which we exist. That’s why we developed an innovative solution that offers all the convenience of single-use products, all the flexibility of reusability, and all the benefits of sustainability.
