I used to give my kids yogurt pouches every day, not realizing this resulted in 6.4 kg of plastic waste per year, which ended up in landfills. Now that we’ve switched to using koors, I no longer feel guilty, and we’re saving money. Most importantly, I’m teaching my kids the importance of reusing plastics instead of throwing them away.

My first thought was ‘how easy is it to clean?’ But after Jean-Francois showed us I realised it’s actually pretty simple. Love that it can go in the dishwasher.

Koor can help people facing eating challenges. It can be covered by your NDIS plan. We are working with many health professional to identify who can beneficiate from koor.
As all new product, it take a bit of practice to familiarise yourself with it. We have created a page to explain everything including how to look after it. Follow the guide: here .
I am Jean-Francois, the inventor of koor. As a father of two young children, I am always striving to provide healthy food for my kids. I make homemade yoghurts and fruit purees, but I struggled to find a suitable reusable container for their lunchboxes. This led me to reluctantly purchase food pouches from the supermarket.
I see four main problems with using single-use plastic food pouches:
I needed a better solution. I tried refillable food pouches, but found them difficult to refill and clean. We also had a few accidents with the pouches unexpectedly opening in the kids’ bags.
Then I had an idea. I bought some large syringes and filled them with yoghurt. They worked well—easy to use and clean. However, I identified a few improvements:
And thus, koor was born.
We want to avoid the need for single-use plastic drink/food containers such as food pouches, festival and stadium cups, coffee cups, and yaourt cups.
Catastrophic environmental issues: Australians throw out 2.7 million single-use or disposable coffee cups every single day. This adds up to 1.8 billion cups thrown out every year [source Envisageworks (2021)]. The food pouches market is growing 6.5% per year [source Technavio].
Using single-use plastics is a practice informing our kids that it is normal to throw away things daily. I believe it’s not the right message to pass on to a generation that will need to make massive changes toward sustainability. Furthermore, these plastic containers are mostly manufactured overseas, adding supply chain issues and carbon emissions.
The plastic used for koor is a high-quality food-grade polypropylene.
Polypropylene (PP) is considered one of the safer plastics for use in food containers. Here are some key points:
We have selected a Premium Polypropylene that compiles with:
Polypropylene is widely recyclable in curbside collection. Just make sure to check with local recycling guidelines to confirm that PP is accepted in your area.
And remember to repair before you discard. Visit our Spare parts section.
Many people are concerned about the environment and want to reduce their use of single-use plastics. However, the convenience of these packaging often makes it challenging to switch. That’s where koor comes in. We believe koor offers a nearly as convenient alternative, with additional features that make it easier for everyone to embrace sustainability:
By addressing these key areas, koor offers a practical and sustainable solution to the growing problem of single-use plastics. How do you feel about using reusable containers like koor in your daily life?
Introducing koor is just the first step of our mission.
We have a bigger dream: circular economy.
We are developing an automatic washing and refilling station for koors. We have the vision that this station can be placed at supermarkets and will be used to refill customer’s koors directly from large food container. This container is then cleaned and refilled by the supplier with food/drinks. The stations can also be installed in festivals, train stations, airports… The wallet integrated in the koors process payment and record content, best-by date, sugar intake… Largely improving the user experience.
We hope this system could reduce the need of single-use plastics (i.e. yogurt cups, bottles, cans, food pouches) to zero. It’s ambitious. We know but we must do it for our future generations.
Contact us if you are interested, we always want to hear from people like us wanting to improve things.
Koor sounds like “cours” in french which means run. It’s a reference to the fact that kids want to eat quickly and go back playing and running. Koor allows them to do that!
Koor containers are made from a highly recyclable material. Please check with your local council to confirm if they accept PP plastics. However, the silicone parts are not recyclable and should be disposed of in the landfill bin
When your koors reach the end of their life, please return them to us for recycling. We’ll give you a 15% discount on a new koor as a thank you. Additionally, each part of the koor can be replaced individually to extend its lifespan. You can order replacement parts on our website. We encourage our customers to repair rather than replace, and we’ve set our prices to support this. discount to replace to a new koor.

Koors are designed to last, but they need a little care! If the plunger becomes difficult to push, simply lubricate the inside of the barrel with a small amount of edible oil. This should help it slide smoothly again. You can order our recommended oil from our shop: Coconut oil spray to lubricate your koor
