Did you know that...
More than 30% of the food produced worldwide ends up as waste. Food waste is one of the major global challenges: it generates costs, emissions, and regulatory pressure, and it can only be reduced if it is first measured.
How it works
Plato Limpio tackles food waste from its most strategic stage: prevention. We do this by combining:
Simple measurement technology with clear indicators: kilograms, cost, and CO₂ emissions.
Education: we provide training and awareness to encourage behavioral change.
Community: we support a dynamic space where experiences are shared to inspire new transformations.
Platform
Plato Limpio is a data-driven technological solution that measures food waste in dining services, analyzes its causes, and turns that information into concrete actions to reduce it, generating environmental, social, and economic impact.

About us
Our community
" This project has allowed us to take a step forward in the fight against food waste. Thanks to the tool, we've been able to clearly see what and how much is wasted in our cafeteria, and that has helped us make informed decisions and improve.
But the most valuable thing has been the change in the students: now they're more aware, they ask questions, they participate... and they understand that throwing away food also means wasting resources and harming the planet. They talk about it at home, share it with their families, and that gets our entire community involved.
Furthermore, we are teaching something fundamental: that technology, when used properly, can serve values. For us, it has been a useful, transformative experience, fully aligned with our understanding of education .
