The Problem

The UK has a food waste crisis.

Every year, UK households throw away billions of pounds worth of perfectly good food. The biggest reason? We forget when we opened it.

£1,000
wasted per UK family per year
40%
of food waste is from not using it in time
6.4M
tonnes wasted by UK homes annually
70%
of food thrown away was still edible

Sound familiar?

?

You open a jar of pesto and forget about it for 3 weeks

?

That yogurt — was it Monday? Or last Thursday?

?

‘Use within 3 days of opening’ — but when did you open it?

?

Half-full jars thrown out during a fridge clear-out, just to be safe

?

Opened milk that smells fine but you’re not sure how old it is

?

Deli meats you bought fresh but can’t remember when

How It Works

Three buttons. Five seconds.

No app to download. No account to create. No ink to replace. Just pick up, set the days, and print.

1

Open your food

Opened a jar of sauce, carton of milk, or a pack of ham? Check the label for ‘use within X days of opening.’

2

Set the days

Press + or – to set the number of days. Hold to jump by weeks. The LCD shows the count.

3

Print & stick

Hit print. A small adhesive label comes out with today’s date and the use-by date. Stick it on. Done.

Example Label
Opened

The Maths

It pays for itself.

If FridgeDate saves even 10% of the food you currently waste:

Average household
£47
per year (at just 10%)
Family of 4
£100
per year (at just 10%)
High wasters
£200+
per year (27% of UK homes)

FridgeDate costs just £24.99

Most households will save more than that in the first few months.

Based on WRAP data: average UK household wastes £470/year, families of 4 waste £1,000/year
