Startups
FreshStrips is a smart-materials/smart-packaging company ($20bn market) with an aim to reduce food waste (annual cost: >$1 trillion) and improve food safety. Our solution to these problems is a simple plastic sticker that gets attached to food packaging. If the food is exposed to unsuitable heat the FreshStrip changes color irreversibly indicating the food is no longer edible (NO-GO state). Compared to our competition (Avery Dennison, 3M) we offer vivid coloring and a radically lower price.
