Vegware, the Scottish and U.S.-based compostable foodservice packaging company, has released its first-ever sustainability report. The 2021 report details Vegware’s commitment to driving access to composting infrastructure, and how its waste consultancy has supported caterers to compost its used compostable containers, cutlery and cups.
Glasgow’s COP26 Climate Conference saw Vegware’s composting solution in action: Vegware’s Close the Loop service collected used disposables and food scraps from Glasgow Science Centre for composting in under 12 weeks, turning catering waste from the event into compost for Scottish fields.
Vegware worked with Nike as it launched a Drive to 100% Food Waste Diversion program in the company’s Memphis Distribution Center, the first program of its kind to minimize and divert food and food-associated waste from the cafeterias. Working alongside Food Services provider ISS Guckenheimer, Vegware was proud to be part of the team that came together to design and implement the program.
