Meadow, one of Thompson Patent Law’s valued clients, is a technology provider dedicated to making circularity at scale a reality. Their innovative refill solution aims to contribute to an existing, circular ecosystem, much like a meadow in nature.

Enabling Circularity at Scale for Brands

Meadow’s patented packaging technology, developed with the assistance of Thompson Patent Law, repurposes the world’s most optimized circular infrastructure: the aluminium beverage can. By leveraging what’s already available, Meadow offers businesses and brands a simple, scalable solution, and consumers an easy and familiar way to reduce household waste.

Intuitive and Premium Packaging Solution

Meadow’s licensable solution has been rigorously tested with consumers and is recognized as the most premium, sustainable, and convenient option for eliminating single-use, linear packaging from consumer products.

Customizable Dispensers and Mess-Free Refills

Meadow’s system includes:

  • Refill can (infinitely recyclable)
  • Daisy Top end (safe in a non-food context)
  • Reusable dispenser with their ‘twist to open’, easy-to-use technology

CPG/FMCG brands can license the Daisy Top™ opening system, designing a dispenser that aligns with their brand identity and using their preferred supply chains for manufacture.

Partnering with Industry Leaders

Meadow’s opening system requires aerospace precision to ensure it is:

  1. Enjoyable to open
  2. Safe to use
  3. Circular

To achieve this, Meadow engages with the entire supply chain, from raw material suppliers to retailers, leveraging existing infrastructure. Partnered in 2023 with DTR to convert all DTR packaging solutions into circular solutions.

Speeding Up the Transition to a Circular Economy

By using aluminium beverage cans as refill cartridges, Meadow taps into an unparalleled recycling collection infrastructure. This change helps brands achieve their plastic and CSR goals while aligning with the regulatory landscape.
