Responsibility
What makes us Responsible?
At U-Konserve our mission is deeply rooted in fostering change in daily habits, to reuse and reduce waste, and help spread the word so that our work is heard, shared and has an impact on our beautiful planet. We're proudly a Certified B Corporation & 1% for The Planet member, and provide sustainable and ethical manufacturing.
Responsibly Made
Ethical Manufacturing
At U-Konserve, we embrace ethical practices by offering high-quality, long-lasting products sustainably designed to minimize waste throughout each product's life cycle. The longer our products last, the fewer resources are used to reach our collective goal: to reduce food-packing waste.
We offer non-toxic, safe products that are tested by CPSIA-accredited independent labs to ensure that they are free of BPA, phthalates and lead.
We offer products designed in California and responsibly made in China in facilities that are working toward green practices, supportive of our mission to reduce waste and adhere to our supplier code of conduct.
Giving Back

U-Konserve is committed to giving back and is a proud member of 1% for the Planet.

Sustainability
We're a Certified B Corporation.
We know our success is not driven by profit alone, and now we have a partnership to help us define, measure and adhere to our positive social and environmental impact.
As a Certified B Corporation and member of 1% for the Planet, we are using business for good by creating a positive impact for our employees, communities and the environment. Our initial mission to protect the planet has grown into a lifestyle of reusing more, wasting less, and raising awareness about the exciting and growing movement to reduce single-use plastic.
Waste-Free Lunches
Support for Schools
We offer schools and families a discount and advice and have done so since our company's inception. Kick the habit of plastic baggies and packaged foods, help your school go waste-free, and reduce trash in our landfills and oceans!
Sustainability

EcoVessel & U-Konserve
Better Together.
In 2021 we proudly merged with EcoVessel, a Boulder Colorado company that creates modern designed, performance driven insulated stainless steel water bottles, mugs, tumblers, and growlers. Now you’ll find their full line of reusable products to complement our reusable food storage solutions. While staying true to both brands’ mission to reduce waste, our new partnership will combine EcoVessel’s hydration expertise with our dedicated food-storage focus to offer innovative products for the growing movement to reduce waste.
