VYTAL Global GmbH, founded in 2019 and based in Cologne, Germany, operates a digital reusable system aimed at reducing single-use packaging waste in the food industry. The company offers an application that enables consumers to select reusable bowls instead of disposable ones when ordering take-away or delivery food. Users can borrow bowls by displaying a QR code from the app or their membership card, and return them at any partner location or designated return boxes. VYTAL serves a wide range of stakeholders, including consumers, restaurants, canteens, caterers, and municipalities. In response to the significant environmental impact of single-use packaging, which generates substantial waste and greenhouse gas emissions, VYTAL positions itself as a sustainable alternative, promoting a circular economy within the growing market for convenience and delivery food.
