Company's story
Our Specialty
The Turn Solution
Explore our proprietary reuse system designed in partnership with Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG)
TURN's sustainable and scalable solution eliminates single-use plastic waste with a circular system comprising of four smart components: packaging and cups, collection bins, IoT, and washing/drying technology.
smart cups
Our patented smart cups are fitted with digital tracking technology and come in all shapes and sizes. Built from recycled polypropylene, aluminum, or stainless steel, they can be reused up to 120 times.
smart bins
Just as important as our cups is our technology for ensuring they are reTURNed for reuse. Our patented collection bins utilize smart technology to incentivize reTURNs and allow for quick, efficient, and safe dispensing
Smart washer
The TURN system wouldn’t be complete if it didn’t do the washing up. Our patented smart washer is 500% more efficient than alternatives and can be transported to venues for mass on-site cleaning.
Smart Software
Plastic or aluminum. We are material agnostic. Our patented cup designs come in many sizes and are designed to be reused over and over again.

Our story
OUR Mission: to rid the planet of single-use plastic
We’re starting a reTURNable revolution. Will you join?
Single-use plastics are an environmental catastrophe, on par with deforestation and biodiversity loss. We believe that ridding the planet of single-use plastic requires a revolutionary approach – and that’s why we founded TURN Systems. We say that music is in our DNA because the idea for TURN was born when we saw the immense quantities of trash thrown away at music festivals and concerts. We loved the atmosphere and energy of live music events, but we hated the environmental consequences that came with them. What if, we thought, we could develop a system that would allow festival goers to enjoy themselves in a more sustainable way?
TURN’s basic philosophy is simple: If consumers reTURN empty cups for reuse, WAY less plastic waste will be produced and disposed of inappropriately. What makes TURN’s system unique is its scalability and the incentive structure it creates for consumers to reTURN cups. No other reuse system caters so seamlessly for both large scale events like music festivals and sports matches and for venues like airports and shopping centers. Our growing team combines environmental, design, and engineering expertise with a love of all things sustainable. By embracing systems thinking and the principle of circularity, we are starting a reTURNable revolution.
