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.
