Cadence created products that move with you, always prioritizing design excellence while working to end single-use travel plastic. Cadence achieved an engineering feat, developing capsules that magnetically snap together, creating a buildable system to fit your routine. Designed for minimalists and maximalists, you can build honeycombs with 2 capsules or 20. Customers create labels for each capsule, choosing from a menu of text and icons or customizing for everything from foundation to toothpaste to earrings. The more you organize, the larger your “honeycomb”. Cadence’s labels are interchangeable and magnetic for easy use and travel. The unique design also blends into your spaces for use at home. Cadence’s customers already have products that make them feel good. That’s why Cadence designed the capsule, so customers can take those products with them. The capsules are 100% non-leaching, non-absorbing, chemically resistant, and leak-proof, so customers’ products remain safe. Capsules are TSA-compliant, dishwasher safe, and life-proof. Capsules were designed to reimagine the way customers organize personal products. The buildable capsule system allows you to easily customize Cadence to fit daily routines, whether you’re traveling, at the gym, in the car or at home - where you go, Cadence follows. Designed with wide openings for easy scooping of every last bit. There are no right angles or edges, making them easy to use. The capsule’s magnetic top, sides, and label all ensure customers will never drop or lose any part of their capsule. The capsules’ proprietary ocean-bound plastic blend is designed to keep customers’ products as safe and fresh as if they were in their original packaging. One capsule equals one travel sized bottle’s worth of plastic removed from beaches and recycled in Cadence’s material. Cadence partnered with Envision Plastics, who collects plastic from beaches around the world by employing local communities. That processed material is sent to Cadence’s facilities, where it’s re-grinded and re-integrated into Cadence’s material mix. This reprocessed material makes up 30% of a finished capsule. All of Cadence’s packaging is recyclable. Customers can toss everything into the recycling bin, and the seed paper in your package is plantable and grows wildflowers.
