The challenge

Opting for home-cooked meals has consistently proven to be the superior choice—for both personal well-being and the health of our planet. In a commitment to this ethos, Haven’s Kitchen chose to package its sauces in lightweight pouches, which have a reduced transportation footprint compared to glass or rigid plastic alternatives. The new challenge: How to reduce the environmental impact of the flexible plastic packaging.

The solution

Haven’s Kitchen launched a TerraCycle On-Demand recycling program to make it easy for its customers to recycle their used sauce packages. It chose to sponsor recycling in full to encourage more customers to reduce waste by recycling.

The result

Integrating TerraCycle On-Demand empowered Haven’s Kitchen to achieve a crucial sustainability objective at scale.
