Petal - The zero-odor germ-freezing waste bin

What’s good, Hunters? I’m Christie, Petal co-founder and EVP of Social Impact. We’re pumped to be launching Petal and sharing our journey with you as we go! So, what is Petal? Why is it a game-changer? Throughout human history, the disposal of dirty diapers, food waste and all manner of organic waste has looked pretty much the same. Centuries ago, we tossed our garbage in the street, creating dangerous and unsanitary conditions that encouraged the spread of sickness and stink throughout our communities. Something had to change. So in 1875, we began storing our waste indoors. Trash cans allowed us to contain rotting, stinking, germ-ridden waste in our own homes! Mmmmmmmm! Love me some decaying fish carcass. And almost nothing about in-house waste disposal has changed since then. Until now. Others companies have tried filters, chemical air fresheners, and environmentally devastating single-use (and sometimes proprietary) plastic liners. But, at their core, waste bins are still just open containers ripe with rot, stench, and germs. Petal is finally revolutionizing the waste disposal game, for good. Uniquely designed to fit into any room of your home, Petal is a sleek, responsibly sourced, magically energy-efficient, and technically-unique appliance that freezes organic waste solid to 0°F in under 35 minutes. The frigid temperature ensures that nothing leaks and nothing sticks to the reusable plastic pail, eliminating the need for landfill-clogging, single-use plastic liners. Powered by new patent-pending technology, Petal uses less than $1 per month in electricity (that’s less than a single load of laundry!). Hit us up with any feedback or questions. 🚀 P.S. We have a special offer for you Hunters. Check it out here: https://petalclean.com/discount/... Christie

Beautiful product! I can't wait to get one!

Really like this product ! But ... seems that you don't ship outside US ? It's a shame :'(

Love it!!! I am always complaining about the odour coming from the bin, lol. Congratulations on your project. Wish you a lot of success!

Can you tell us a bit more about what's needed to maintain a Petal? Does it run on batteries or does it need a power cord? Does it require refills of any kind?

I have had the pleasure of seeing a prototype, and the way that it froze everything we put in it to something that was just completely a solid frozen block, it's crazy. I can't believe that this doesn't exist already, and that it took literal rocket engineers to actually make it happen.

Clever idea for solving everyday problem, hope it will become available in Europe soon! :)

very clever!

This is a so good designed product. Well done @a_rutherford_ @antnags1 @prim99 @david_taffet @christie_zwahlen. BWT, I saw you are using Shopify for the store: Great decision.
