Just a little bit of upfront work, sets you up for years of not needing to order single-use packaging supplies, saving a lot of money, and helping the planet. Periva makes this journey easy and rewarding.
Open Reusables Networks
In Open Networks, Reusables can be exchanged/returned at any other participating business, are standardized across a geographical area, and unbranded to a specific business.
Commission
When you first receive an order of reusables with Periva Tags on them, bulk commission them to bring those units into your initial ownership.
Encourage scans
When you serve a customer in reusable container, encourage them to scan them from their accounts on the Periva app. This passes ownership to them, and adds to theirs, and the business’ Impact Report. This is optional.
Scan returns
After washing / sanitizing the reusables returned to your business, bulk scan them before stacking them for reuse - ensuring that the cycle is complete and you earn the Impact points.
Refunds
In the event that the customer wants to return the reusable container and not exchange it (get served in a clean one), the refund should be handled by the establishment at the time of the refund, after taking a suggested 15% service fee on the cost of the original container.
This may vary based on program you are participating in. Please check with the program operators for details.

Inventory management for circular businesses
No current inventory management software solution on the market works for circular businesses - where reusables and their management is a core part of their operations.
So Periva built one into its platform.
Periva’s automated inventory management system updates itself based on every scan of the Reusables Tags: filling, order placement, order assembly, and returns.
Receive notifications when a product is below the threshold you set, disable sales of the product when it is out of stock, manage expirations and more.
Connect bluetooth scanners
Low-cost, readily available bluetooth scanners make scanning superfast.
IMPACT
Your impact, measured
You can’t change what you can’t measure.
Each reuse scan contributes automatically to your business’ live Periva Impact Report - enabling you to project your sustainability achievements to the world.
WHY
Global packaging waste
The world generates around 300 million tons of plastic waste annually, with packaging accounting for nearly half of this total.
Packaging constitutes about 40% of the total plastic usage globally, and 50% of marine litter. A substantial volume of waste could be reduced by adopting reusable alternatives.
WHY
Reusables FTW
Reusable packaging systems, have shown to reduce packaging waste by up to 85% compared to single-use packaging.
WHY
Consumer preferences
There is a growing consumer demand for sustainable packaging. Surveys indicate that over 60% of consumers are willing to pay more for products with environmentally friendly packaging.
The environmental and economic benefits of reusables cannot be ignored.
Periva is here to help you make that transition.
