What a blast! This week (#ZeroWasteWeek) CauliBox joined ISS Facility Services UK's foodservice roadshow to showcase our AI-powered reuse system for food & drink packaging. We were blown away by our customer's commitment to reducing at least 30% of single-use packaging in the next 3 years.

This week is #ZeroWasteWeek 🌍 We’re proudly shining a light on our incredible partnerships and the efforts of our teams to actively reduce waste across our locations. Our obsession for food and beverage, goes way beyond delighting diners – we’re committed to being forever conscious, protecting our planet and supporting our communities. We’re always thinking up new ways, big or small, to make a difference beyond every plate.      Our teams are not just fuelling customers, they’re fuelling change. Last year, they took on the challenge to overhaul the beverage offering, focusing on smarter solutions. By tapping into our client’s existing distribution network, the team streamlined delivery of our supply to all locations, cutting down on road miles!     This April, we also made a bold move and brewed a game-changing swap – out with 1.1 million single-use pods and in with tea and coffee from social enterprises at every single location which comes in packaging that is either recyclable or compostable.     We’re proud to partner with TrueStart Coffee | Certified B Corp | Carbon Negative, where every tin of coffee purchased provides a Magic Breakfast for children in poverty - turning every morning brew into a force for good. Our partnership with NEMI Teas brings organic, plastic-free tea blends in biodegradable packaging. Profits for each cup support refugees in the UK, helping them find employment and a fresh start. Our brilliant team even helped develop one of their latest blends, the Trampoline Tea!    Another team of trailblazers at a Loughborough location have also been taking bold steps forward, creating a disposable-free space. They’ve made incredible progress so far, saying goodbye to single-use plastics and ditching disposable coffee cups. We’re proudly partnering with CauliBox – a game-changing reusable lunchbox system. It’s as simple as scan, eat, return, and repeat! The boxes are then thoroughly sanitised and ready to be reused. With Cauli Box in place from this week, the location is almost entirely disposable-free.

Yesterday marked the first day for our new sustainability initiative in our London office, the introduction of Cauli Box. We are incredibly proud to have partnered with Cauli to help eliminate our single-use waste. A 100% recycled and reusable, tech-enabled packaging product. Each year, our office used and disposed of over 200,000 coffee cups and over 66,000 takeaway containers. Cauli Box will help us eliminate that waste, and it starts this week! Many thanks to Nerida Antoniou for all the hard work and effort that's gone into the planning and rollout and to the entire catering team here at Norton Rose Fulbright. One of many initiatives in the pipeline to do our part. #sustainability #CauliBox #eliminatewaste

Carrier bag charge sees usage plummet by 97% in the UK. If we apply the same to single-use food & drink packaging while offering a super convenient reuse alternative to consumers, we could save up to 10 billion pieces of avoidable waste every year. We're proud to see our new customer introducing a disposable surcharge and leading the change👏 💚 #reuse #caulibox #caulicup #ditchdisposables #reusablepackaging #caulicoins #ReuseReduceRecycle

🍽 Plastic Free July 🍽 There is still time to get behind this global movement and work towards using less single-use plastic! One third of the world's waste is packaging, including 6 million tonnes of single-use food and drink items, with just 14% of it being recycled or composted. We are working to combat this problem with our impactful partnership with CauliBox and their re-suable containers. Using award winning technology to help food businesses to manage reusable packaging, CauliBox packaging is used, tracked, returned, and washed, eliminating single-use waste, and ensuring the packaging always comes back into circulation. We are proud to be championing them and working together to reduce our environmental footprint and fostering a culture of sustainability. Together, we have achieved the following so far: 🥗 Reused 116,728 CauliBoxes 🚗 Reduced 27,401kg CO2 (equivalent to driving a petrol car 5.5 times around the world)  📦 Prevented 280m3 material waste (which can fill 28 large lorries) 🥐 Given out over 4,000 loyalty rewards (delicious pastries, beverages, sides and mains) to guests for their custom and sustainable behaviour Gavin Gooddy Stephanie Robertson DipWSET Luxey Dayanandan RNutr #plasticfreejuly #eliminatesingleuseplastic #sustainability
