Our Journey

2022 - The Vision

Founded by environmental engineers frustrated with the lack of truly sustainable, American-made alternatives to plastic tableware.

"We saw businesses wanting to go green but stuck with inferior products from overseas. America could do better."

2024 - Research & Development

Invested 2 years in R&D, working with agricultural and polymer scientists to develop plant-based formulations that matched plastic performance.

Over 200 prototype iterations to achieve the perfect balance of durability and compostability.

2025 - Certification Success

Achieved triple certification from BPI, TÜV Austria, and CMA - becoming one of the first to meet all three standards.

First American company to receive all three major compostability certifications for drinking straws.

2025 - Market Launch

Launched with 10 pilot customers across the Midwest, establishing our reputation for quality and reliability.
