Temperature-Controlled Food Bags

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

ZipBag is an Eco Alternative to Plastic Bags & Containers

— November 14, 2019 — Art & Design
One of the areas of the home that's responsible for creating the most amount of waste is the kitchen, yet many environmentally minded consumers are making simple swaps by investing in package-free foods, reusable water bottles, stainless steel drinking straws and alternatives to plastic bags and containers. ZipBag is a plastic-free alternative to lunch bags and storage containers that offers features for temperature control and leftover tracking. The space-saving bags boast patent-pending designs that can be used to store everything from lunches to leftovers, all the while helping to reduce waste and promote better organization.

ZipBag sets itself apart with an included hot or cold pack, as well as an external storage pouch that can be used to store utensils, napkins or other items separately from the main compartment.
