RUSSBE™ Adds a New
Line of
Bento Boxes to Its Reusable Product
Lineup and Announces Improvements to Their
Popular Snack & Sandwich Bags
Reducing waste
has
never been easier – and what’s more, the
new RUSSBE Bento Boxes
and
Reusable bags make a stylish statement as well

A survey conducted by the statistics portal Statistica found that over a one-week period in 2016, 10.15
million Americans
used 21 or more
plastic sandwich bags.
An additional 88.93 million consumers
used
six or more weekly. On an
annual basis, these figures add up to a lot of needless waste, thereby
prompting schools across the nation to push “waste-free lunches, where everything must be either
compostable or reusable,” the “New York Times” reported in 2011.
In response to that prodding, “unit
sales of plastic sandwich bags
sold declined
by 3.17 percent, while paper bags
fell by 13.19 percent” between 2010 and 2011. Still,
as
the Statistica findings illuminate, much progress remains to be made.

RUSSBE’s
Perfect Seal Bento Boxes are built with a slide & lock lid mechanism that keeps
a tight, leak-proof seal when closed. The Stack + Chill Pak Bentos are double-stacked
containers with multi-compartments that keep foods separated. They are microwavable
and include utensils and an ice pack that keep food fresh, safe, and ready to eat
right out of the box. The Mini Snack Bento has 2-compartments and a total 18-ounce
capacity, it fits in purses, diaper bags or gym bags and holds the perfect amount
of 2 snack options in one place. These new Bento lines range from $6.99 to $14.99

with new
colors arriving mid-late
2017.
