LifeSpring Home Nutrition uses sustainable meal delivery and packaging. By using paper dishes and envelopes instead of plastic containers and taking other steps to reduce waste, the company ensures clients have a better experience. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), “Containers and packaging make up a major portion of municipal solid waste (MSW), amounting to 82.2 million tons of generation in 2018 (28.1 percent of total generation).” Avoiding bulky and ineffective packaging makes meals more convenient and eco-friendly.
High-quality meal delivery packaging ensures meals remain consistent and stay safe to eat after delivery. Proper packaging keeps the food cool and under the recommended temperature for frozen or refrigerated meals until the client can store it. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “Perishable food . . . should arrive frozen, partially frozen with ice crystals still visible, or at least as cold as it would be in a refrigerator (40°F or below).” LifeSpring Home Nutrition uses dry ice, frozen water packs, and insulated envelopes to provide practical and effective packaging.
Many elderly members of the community have difficulty disposing of bulky packaging. The Journal of General Internal Medicine says, “Many older adults live alone. For example, in the United States, over 45 % of women over 75 live alone.” LifeSpring Home Nutrition keeps packaging minimal and simple without sacrificing quality to ensure older individuals have less residual materials to manage. Unlike other delivery services, there are no big boxes to break down or plastic containers to dispose of after the client finishes the meal.
Meals are kept cold using small blocks of frozen water inside an insulated sleeve. Dry ice keeps the food at a steady, cool temperature until it can be moved into a fridge or freezer. People do not have to wrestle with heavy boxes, bulky liners, or frozen gel packs. Keeping it simple allows LifeSpring Home Nutrition to provide community members with quality nutritious meals.
Every package affects the local environment and the recipient’s personal living space. By streamlining the delivery service and minimizing packaging, the delivery team reduces the environmental impact of weekly deliveries.
Some of the ways LifeSpring Home Nutrition reduces waste include:
Older individuals and people with disabilities may have difficulty lifting or moving a week’s worth of meal boxes. The light packaging envelopes used by LifeSpring Home Nutrition make it easy to move food into the fridge or freezer after a weekly delivery.
In addition to reducing material waste, LifeSpring Home Nutrition ensures each dish is easily reheated to cut down on food waste. Unlike other delivery services that require clients to eat the food the same day, LifeSpring Home Nutrition freezes each meal. People unfreeze them using simple printed instructions. The convenience makes it easier for seniors and other vulnerable populations to maintain a balanced diet.
Some benefits of frozen delivered meals include:
Meal deliveries increase independence and allow people to retain control of their diet and health. According to the Social Security Administration (SSA), “With home-delivered . . . meal options, you can get the food you need in a way that works best for you. It can help you avoid missed meals – and save you time and money . . . You can learn about healthy food recommendations based on your age, unique needs, and preferences.” LifeSpring Home Nutrition educates individuals and families about the importance of proper nutrition, provides meal planning services, and ensures every person has access to the resources they need to maintain their mental and physical well-being.
LifeSpring Home Nutrition is constantly innovating and finding new ways to improve the meal delivery experience for individuals in the community. Every part of the meal preparation, packaging, and delivery process is carefully planned. The preparation and delivery teams conduct frequent quality checks to ensure meals exceed client expectations.
A few ways the company ensures high-quality deliveries include:
Every area has a single delivery driver, ensuring people have a regular schedule and a positive social interaction to look forward to every week. The driver is familiar with each client’s drop-off preferences and ensures the food is always delivered on time, in the preferred place, and at the ideal temperature.
LifeSpring Home Nutrition values transparency, honesty, integrity, and compassion. The owner only partners with other companies who share these values, making it easier to adjust packaging and meal delivery services as needed to ensure quality control. Everyone involved in creating these meals and their packaging has the client’s health, safety, and comfort in mind. Each decision, from the shape and size of the insulated sleeves to the anonymous labels protecting client privacy, is carefully planned and executed to ensure clients receive the best meals to meet their needs.
