bucket. As the company evolved, it has expanded
into drinkware - including reusable, insulated
canteens, tumblers, wine cups and mugs -
which now makes up about 80% of its business.
About five years ago, Corkcicle dedicated itself
to taking its cause a step further by eliminating
all single-use plastic in its packaging.

Pencil Power
SproutWorld's journey began in Cambridge,
Massachusetts, in 2013. A group of students at
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology created
the idea for a plantable pencil with a seed capsule
that could be placed in the soil after use. After
Stausholm discovered the pencil on Kickstarter's
crowdfunding platform, he purchased the patent
and global rights.
Demand is on an upswing. The pencils are
crafted from sustainable harvested wood, natural
graphite and clay. After being planted (capsule

vegetables, flowers or fruits.
Plastic-Free Gifting
Corkcicle was founded in 2011 on
a mission to eliminate plastic
waste. Nearly 15 years later,
it not only continues to fulfill
and pursue that mission, but
also has solidified itself as a
trend and industry leader in
gift.
The company began with
its flagship product, the
Corkcicle Air in-bottle wine
chiller, designed to chill wine

ourselves on eliminating plastic waste and
paper. But our packaging - we shipped it in a
plastic sleeve and bubble wrap, " said Andrea
Sage, director of gift at Corkcicle. " So our
teams went as far as exploring every last detail.
Now, the glue that's on the sticker of our cup,
the sticker itself, the plastic sleeve it comes in?
All of that is now biodegradable. "
Top sellers include the 40-Ounce Cruiser and
the traditional Sport Canteen. Meanwhile, the Go
Cup XL is a hot new item for Corkcicle. It's cupholder
friendly, can hold up to 30 ounces, and it's
leak-proof - all with a wide carry handle.
Corkcicle's success comes also from its
embrace of trendy patterns, colorways and
designs. Its target customers are female, so while
the company offers a product and style for every
demographic, many designs align with what's
trending in women's fashion - from leopard
prints to florals and ombré patterns - making
for very giftable items.
After being planted,
SproutWorld's plantable pencils
will sprout into trees, herbs,
vegetables, flowers or fruits.
