The COVID-19 Pandemic has negatively impacted numerous industries and businesses. Many businesses are shutting down for at least the time being and it is unclear if they will bounce back. However, many businesses may be taking this opportunity to revamp and expand their business so it is critical to stay on top of the latest trends in the industry.
Tipi Eco, a compostable straw manufacturer, is one of those negatively affected businesses. According to its website, it is closed due to the pandemic. However, it had a patent application published on January 14, 2021 that was filed on July 13, 2020. This shows that Tipi Eco is still looking to expand their business even though it appears that they are currently closed. Even more surprising is that the application is directed to compostable cutlery! Tipi Eco is known for their compostable straws but there is zero information to be found on its website about compostable cutlery. This is a strong indicator that Tipi Eco is planning to increase its offerings once it is no longer limited by the pandemic.
