About

Carbon recycling needs a practical front end.

Carbon Recycling Pink Dot™ is a simple on-package, on-bin, on-bag, and site-signage system that helps identify approved recent-biogenic residuals before they become mixed waste.

What it is

A feedstock supply-chain system, not a single bin campaign.

The Pink Dot identifies approved food scraps, leftovers, fiber, paper, pizza boxes, FOG, back-of-house organics, and other biological materials that belong in a managed carbon recycling stream at participating sites.

The system always acknowledges local ordinances, food donation rules, health requirements, hauling contracts, facility acceptance limits, and best practices. It is designed to simplify the visible user action while keeping the back-end routing site-specific and technically honest.

Donation first

Edible, safe, donatable food should follow local food recovery programs before residual recovery.

Residuals next

Food scraps, leftovers, soiled fiber, pizza boxes, grease, and prep waste can be routed as approved feedstock.

Technology-neutral

The same front-end system can support many local end uses and future conversion technologies.

Infrastructure-light

Use Pink Dot labels, stickers, bags, signage, and overlays before major bin or facility changes.

Core message

Separate better upstream. Route smarter downstream.

The Pink Dot creates the missing front-end layer for high-quality biogenic feedstock: simple enough for the public, useful enough for operators, flexible enough for future conversion pathways.
