Better for All Joins Oak View Group's GOAL Network to Drive Sustainability at Major U.S. Venues

PASADENA, Calif., Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Better for All, natural products innovator, is proud to announce its membership in the Oak View Group's GOAL sustainability network as an Official Solution Provider. This partnership strengthens Better for All's commitment to driving circular initiatives within the sports, entertainment, and live events sectors by offering its TUV certified home compostable and BPI certified compostable PHA cups to the member network as a truly sustainable alternative to single-use plastics.

GOAL, a membership-driven sustainability network founded by Oak View Group, is dedicated to providing sports, entertainment, and event venues with the tools to track, measure, and improve their sustainability practices. With a focus on environmental data analysis, carbon accounting, and waste diversion strategies, GOAL helps its members achieve tangible sustainability goals while fostering a community of like-minded operators and solution providers.

The Oak View Group's GOAL network includes some of the biggest names in sports and entertainment across the U.S. Notable members include: the Prudential Center, Dodger Stadium, Fenway Park, Wrigley Field, the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, Citi Field, the Moody Center, the MGM Music Hall and more.

Better for All showcased 8 oz, 16 oz and 20 oz PHA cups at the GOAL Summit in Arizona on October 14th. They will also be debuted at the OVG Hospitality event in Orlando, FL December 2nd - 5th, 2024.

Better for All's home compostable cups, verified plastic-free through Oceanic Global's Blue Standard, are designed to support GOAL members in their efforts to meet ambitious waste diversion and circularity goals. As highlighted in GOAL's 2024 Impact Report, members like the State Farm Arena and UBS Arena have already made significant strides in reducing waste and achieving sustainability certifications. GOAL members currently divert an average of 32% of their waste through reusing, recycling, and composting. Better for All products support this mission by helping venues transition to zero-waste operations either through reuse or diversion to composting.

"Our goal is to instigate the transition from a waste management model to a material management model in the live events space. Experience teaches us that true circularity requires collaboration between suppliers, producers, concessionaires, and clean up crews from the planning stage" said Raegan Kelly, co-founder and head of product at Better for All. "We are looking forward to working with GOAL members to create positive impact experiences for artists and fans."

About Better for All: Better for All is driving a zero-waste movement within the celebration space by offering 100% reusable, renewable, and home compostable alternatives to disposable plastic cups. Verified plastic-free by Oceanic Global's Blue Standard, Better for All cups are designed to leave no trace behind.
