The Mr. Lid team is sponsored by Sussex IM out of Sussex, Wisconsin. The Mr. Lid brand was originally created in 2011 as a “as seen on TV” brand and was rebranded in 2017 for retail and created the brand we see today. The goal of the project is to work with Dining Services and the sustainability initiative on Michigan Tech’s Campus, to implement a returnable food packaging process, that students would utilize, which focuses on the Reuse side of the Recycling Triangle. The team was formed in Fall of 2019 and is comprised of both CPM Enterprise students and Green Campus Enterprise students in order to look at both the product manufacturing aspect of the project and the sustainability aspect of the project.
