Packaging, Circular Economy Clay may be the ultimate recyclable material.

"GaeaStar, a technology company based in San Francisco and Berlin, developed ultra-thin clay containers as an alternative to single-use plastic. The containers are created through high-speed additive manufacturing (3D printing) and consist of three simple ingredients: clay, water and salt...Users can dispose of the containers in regular trash or even smash them on the ground, as they turn into dust without causing any environmental harm. This eliminates the need for recycling. They can also be washed and reused, and are appropriate for both hot and cold beverages." - Dawn Hammon Article: Check Out an All-Natural Solution for Single-Use Containers
