"Israeli social design collective Tikkun Olam Makers (TOM) (designed) an alternative: a compostable, biodegradable pill bottle made out of paper. ...That’s because it’s designed with paper, adhesives, and a water-resistant coating that are all biodegradable. (Finding a coating that would be water-resistant in the bathroom was the biggest challenge, according to Carlton. This one uses beeswax.) The design also complies with FDA regulations for child resistance."
