East Coast concept adds eco-friendly pizza boxes

October 9, 2014

Pizza Pie-er, a three-unit pizza concept with locations in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, is now carrying Ecovention's GreenBox, an eco-friendly pizza box that breaks into plates and a storage unit for leftovers, and is made of 100-percent recyclable material.

According to a news release, the top of Ecovention’s Green Box breaks down into four plates, while the bottom folds into a storage container for leftovers. The idea behind the design is to eliminate disposable plates, plastic wrap and aluminum foil.

"At Pizza Pie-er, we pride ourselves in providing a unique and endless selection of specialty pizzas. It is only fitting to carry a one-of-a-kind pizza box that is just as good for the Earth as it is useful for our valued patrons," Owner Bahman Jalili said in the release.

Pizza Pie-er offers $2 off a large pizza to customers who bring in any used pizza box to recycle.
