GreenBox: Pizza Box Turns into Plates & Storage Unit

www.greenboxny.com; twitter.com/greenboxny

Ecovention, LLC is a design, licensing firm and manufacturing firm dedicated to improving outmoded, outdated and wasteful food packaging. Ecovention, LLC is marketing its first product, the GreenBox (US Patent 7,051,919), a pizza box manufactured from 100% recycled material. The top of the GreenBox breaks down into convenient serving plates, eliminating the need for disposable plates. The bottom of the 'GreenBox' converts easily into a handy storage container, eliminating the need for plastic wrap, tin foil or plastic bags. The perforations and scores that create this functionality allow for easy disposal into a standard-sized recycling bin. Made from a standard pizza blank, the GreenBox requires no additional material or major redesign and can therefore be produced at no additional manufacturing cost. Ecovention, LLC owns the utility patent on the GreenBox.

Hey! Someone took two pieces! >:C

That depends on where you are. Here in Cambridge, MA the recycle bins specifically point you that you can.

This is awesome! ....but you're not supposed to recycle cardboard that's come into direct contact with food.

...because all people who eat pizza are men? we saw four slices and two dudes. Also, there might be a second pizza (with toppings!) already in the other room.
