Is a reusable food wrap patented?

Short answer: specific designs of a reusable food wrap have been patented many times, but "a reusable food wrap" as a general idea is not what is protected. What matters is the exact combination of features in your version.

What our index shows
  • 52 US and WO patent publications since 2000 have a title matching “beeswax wrap” or a close variant (our index of 9.7 million patent families; one publication per family).
  • Among the 52 best keyword matches we examined, 12 were published in 2020 or later, and the earliest was published in 2001.
  • Most frequent assignees in those matches: WANG HUALONG (2), FOOD HUGGERS INC (1), HOGG DOUGLAS STUART (1), STEFAN ANTONY (1).
  • Most common patent classes (CPC subclasses): B65D (28), B32B (9), Y10T (9), B65B (7).

Counts come from keyword matching on titles and abstracts, so they are indicative, not a legal count. Some matches are different products that share a word.

What this means for your idea

Because patents cover specific combinations of features, the useful question is not “has a reusable food wrap been patented?” but “has my combination of features been described before?” Kitchen gadgets are a crowded, mature field; novelty usually sits in one specific mechanism, the material, or how two familiar functions are combined.
