Here’s a Bright Idea: Eco-Friendly Film Canisters
Like single serving coffee pods, film canisters aren’t exactly the environment’s best friend. One startup over in Italy is trying to change that. Called compagnia-imago, the company is trying to create a high-quality eco-friendly film canister that’s biodegradable, compostable, an reusable.
Each canister has a standard size and can be refilled with your own 35mm film by unscrewing the cap, allowing you to feed your love of film photography without contributing to canisters piling up at your local landfill.
compagnia-imago says the rolls are now in production, and they’re hoping to have a first batch of 100 units ready in the coming days, offered both empty and pre-loaded with black-and-white film. You can follow along with the project on the company’s website.
