The companies UNITED CAPS and Mimica created a bottle cap that is aimed to reduce up to 44% of juice waste. This new product is a cap that consumers can attach to juice bottles. The cap contains a gel inside that will change from smooth to bumpy based on storage conditions. It is also making the food’s condition easy to determine for people who are visually impaired. It will remove the need for confusing date labels on juice packages. Once the cap is bumpy it can be recycled, so it is also environmentally friendly. The product is currently under a pilot program and will hopefully be released to the public soon.
