A CHEESE PACKAGE MADE 100% FROM CHEESE WASTE

SOLUTION

The whey. We create bioplastic from waste to create cheese packaging. We discovered the solution was in the cheese itself creating an unprecedented innovation: We managed to turn whey into a biopolymer called PHA through a biotechnological process. Cheese waste is an opportunity to rethink the way we conceive packaging.

HOW WE DID IT

Using controlled microorganisms, we transformed cheese whey into biodegradable pellets. These pellets were blended with natural compounds and turned into compostable film. The result: functional, certified, plastic-free packaging.
