Malaysia's first reusable food container service (2021-2023)

In mid-2021 to early 2023, Tapauware was incepted by Enviu as the first food container service in Malaysia. 

We explored a variety of business models to understand whether reuse systems can work in the country. We started off with eateries, followed by festivals and finally landed on “closed” environments. 

We found that focusing on “closed” environments, environments that allow easy returns of food containers – was the best bet!

The world has never been more aware of plastic pollution.

So why are we failing to do anything about it?

Recycling alone won’t stop the damage caused by the enormous volumes of plastic we’re producing. We need to stop single-use plastics at the source! Reusable solutions like our meal containers can eliminate vast quantities of plastic, improve brand messaging and boost customer loyalty.

It’s a win for consumers, a win for businesses and a big win for our planet 🌏🥰
