Seriously sustainable.
We believe that minimizing environmental impact should be a priority. Here's how you can help.
One of the reasons we love frozen food is that its environmental benefits are enormous.
Less manufacturing excess — and less spoilage for consumers — helps bring down costs for everyone and makes a dent in the billions of pounds of methane-emitting food waste that's put into landfills every year.
But our commitment to running Mosaic in a way that minimizes environmental impact doesn't end at what we sell — it also includes how we sell it. That's why 100% of our packaging is either curbside recyclable or made with post-consumer recycled fiber.
Here's how we made it happen — and how you can do your part by recycling.
Box and dividers
Our box is made with a blend of recycled and virgin kraft papers.
How to recycle
Put it in your curbside recycling bin, sorted with papers.
The liner
Our liner is fully curbside recyclable, and is made of a blend of paper and corn starch.
How to recycle
Put it in your curbside recycling bin, sorted with papers.
Welcome letters
If you don't pin 'em to your fridge, we won't be offended. These cards are made of standard paper stock and can be recycled with the box and liner.
How to recycle
Put it in your curbside recycling bin, sorted with papers.
Dry ice
Tired of wasteful gel packs? So were we. So we found an ice pack that disappears naturally, leaving virtually zero trace.
How to dispose
Careful — dry ice is very cold, so use gloves to handle it! You can toss it in your backyard, or leave in a well-ventilated area at room temperature and it will naturally disappear overnight.
Meal boxes
Made of heavy-duty chipboard to protect your meals in transit, these boxes are recyclable with other papers.
How to dispose
Put in your curbside recycling bin, sorted with papers.
Trays
These amazing, two-layer trays are beautiful, recyclable, and BPA-free.
How to dispose
When you've finished eating, peel the plastic liner away from the cardboard base of your bowl. Recycle the cardboard with papers; rinse the liner and recycle it with #4 plastics (usually in-store dropoff). The thin plastic top film protecting the food should not be recycled curbside β contact your local recycling center to ask whether they will accept it!
Cups
Made with 100% recycled paper and recycled fiber, our cups are fully microwave safe. The paper lid is made with recycled paper board, and helps keep your food fresh in the freezer.
Note: In times of short supply, our cups are occasionally topped with recyclable plastic lids.
How to dispose
Contact your local recycling center to ask whether they will accept paper cups and lids; if not, wash thoroughly and dispose of them in your wastebin. Plastic lids can be recycled curbside with plastics.
