THE CREATION OF
A SUSTAINABLE
PIZZA BOX

Back in March 2020, when the world was haunted by a global pandemic and the consumption of ressource intensive single-use packaging reached all time highs, design students Marlene and Luise came up with the idea of a sustainable, reusable pizza box. Co-developed for almost 2 years with Filip and pizzaiolos from all over the world, PIZZycle was finally born in 2022.

INNOVATION BY DESIGN

When we envisioned the perfect reusable and recyclable pizza box, we not only wanted to safe ressources by designing a functional and durable product, but also by making the manufacturing process itself as sustainable as possible. Finally, we ended up with a revolutionary approach, making bottom and lid of PIZZycle identical. This allowed us to cut down needed ressources and emissions for making the tool by half.

We strongly believe that timeless, minimalistic design and sustainability go hand in hand.

MANUFACTURING

Paying fair wages, reducing emissions from transportation, fulfilling strong food safety and product quality requirements, there are countless of reasons why believe in local production and sourcing. As a German based company, we are proud to say that PIZZycle is Made in Germany and every material we use is beeing produced in Europe.

REUSABILIY AND
RECYCLABILITY

Pizza boxes made from ressource and emission intensive cardboard are single-use. As the the name indicates, they can only be used once and are not or hard to recycle. Each year billions of pizza cardboard boxes are beeing thrown away. Using highest quality polypropylene, each PIZZycle replaces hundreds of pizza cardboard boxes and is 100 % recyclable.

SOCIAL IMPACT

Sharing our passion for sustainability and pizza with thousands of people around the world, we couldn’t be more happy to be part of the growing PIZZycle community, bringing like-minded people together and inspiring others to follow. Let’s spread awareness about our zero waste pizza box revolution and safe billions and billions of pizza cardboard boxes!
