Hi, I’m Shushmit. This project started from a place of both heartbreak and hope. Not long ago, I lost my beloved pet, a "little life" that meant the world to me,due to the impact of plastic waste in our environment. That loss changed how I saw the world, especially the mountains of takeaway plastic we use every single day here in Sydney.
I realized that being "sustainable" isn't just a word; it’s a necessity to protect the creatures and the planet we love.
The Mission: Solving the plastic crisis. As NSW rolls out strict new plastic bans in 2026, many of our favorite local restaurants are struggling. They need packaging that doesn't just "look" green, but actually works. Most eco-friendly bowls today leak, turn to mush under hot curry, or, worse, contain hidden "forever chemicals" (PFAS) to keep them waterproof.
I’ve spent the last few months working with certified suppliers to source high-heat, PFAS-free sugarcane bagasse bowls. They are specifically designed for Sydney’s high-heat cuisines—100% compostable, toxin-free, and strong enough for the hottest curry.
Why I Need Your Help My heart is in building this sustainable future. I have the business plan, the ABN, and the suppliers ready to go. I just need the initial "seed" capital to bring the first shipment to our city and show local businesses there is a better way.
Where the Funds Will Go: To ensure total transparency, here is exactly how your support will be used:
$7,200: Our first 20+ boxes of high-performance stock.
$5,200: International shipping, storage, and customs fees (clearing Australian Biosecurity).
$900: Mandatory $10M Product Liability Insurance and sample kits for local cafes.
A Kinder Future By supporting this launch, you aren't just funding a business; you're helping a local founder provide a safe, honest alternative to plastic. You're helping me honor the "little life" I lost by protecting countless others.
Every donation, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to a plastic-free Sydney. Thank you for believing in this mission
