Welcome to Chart-Reuse
A first-in-industry foodware reuse analytics platform
We are so excited to introduce you to Chart-Reuse™ - the first reuse analytics platform to help food service companies shift from single-use to reuse.
Through our work with food service providers, we learned that many wanted to shift away from single-use, but they were concerned about costs. And if they decided to move forward, they wanted to be able to understand the environmental benefits and tell that story to their customers.
So we worked with them to create Chart-Reuse. Chart-Reuse is a software platform that helps restaurants - and food service businesses of all sizes - to understand both the environmental and cost-savings impacts of ditching disposables for reusables.
It enables data driven decision-making and helps businesses measure and understand the impacts – and market the benefits to customers and the public.
It works through inputting or uploading single-use procurement data, then selecting reusable options to replace them.
You then receive a customized impact report showing the projected cost savings, the return on investment, the break-even period, and the avoided greenhouse gas emissions and waste prevented.
Impact reports show the data in aggregate and also by individual product - so that you can decide where to prioritize your efforts.
And Upstream staff are here to help you through the entire process.
We hope that Chart-Reuse enables you to succeed with reuse. Learn more at www.chart-reuse.eco.
