Zero-waste principles in innovation - Packaging straight from the beehive

 It’s organic, renewable, edible, biodegradable, antifungal, antiviral, antiseptic, antibacterial – and, most importantly, recyclable. A great idea to use the wax as a packaging and a sustainable innovation. Bees produce the wax for almost the same purpose and this shows how good nature works.


Let's use nature for our products and packaging!

Innovative packaging straight from the beehive 2021-07-05 Everyone knows that the main purpose of food is eating. However, keen innovators have found other ways to turn certain food items into sustainable solutions for everyday life. These include various types of packaging made from fish bones, coffee grounds – and even a 100% pure honey beeswax pot, designed in Lithuania. Not only are these solutions organic and zero-waste; they also bring benefits to both humans and nature. Building on ancient traditions of beekeeping Sustainability is a key principle for many of today’s innovators, who are looking for ways to use food items differently. And sustainability goes hand-in-hand with the principle of zero waste. Bee Loop, an innovative new honey pot created by Lithuanian designer Aurimas Kadzevičius, offers a solution that seeks to recreate the cycle of nature.
