Problem
Traditional packaging methods contribute significantly to global marine litter and environmental pollution, with single-use plastics posing a major threat to both human and environmental health. Existing refill solutions often lack convenience, assuming packaging is tied to a single product and purchase, hindering widespread adoption of sustainable practices.
Solution
ZeroTag offers a system of digitally rewritable NFC tags and a companion mobile application designed to streamline the refill process and reduce packaging waste. The NFC tags can be affixed to reusable containers, allowing users to dynamically update product information via their smartphones. The ZeroTag app enables users to manage their e-pantry, track product expiry dates, and link items to online retailers for easy reordering. This system promotes a circular economy by enabling convenient refills and reducing reliance on single-use packaging.
