Innovation and Awards
Research and development of new materials and products is a key part of Vegware's mandate and our success. We don't simply distribute packaging - we conceive, design, and manufacture new and innovative products. Our approach is often to look at products which are widely used, and then develop low-impact versions.
A key success to date has been the world's first compostable hot cup lid, and our research and development programme will give rise to a number of new products in 2010.
We are always interested to hear about projects and product ideas, and we are usually able to source or develop the perfect product for a particular application.
