Sustainable bioplastics made from sargassum to combat plastic pollution in the Caribbean
Our solution transforms invasive sargassum seaweed into innovative biomaterials, with a focus on biodegradable films and bags for packaging. These eco-friendly alternatives replace traditional plastics, offering an 81% reduction in carbon footprint while being fully biodegradable, even in landfill conditions, without requiring specialized infrastructure. Made from abundant and cost-effective sargassum, our films are versatile, moisture-resistant, and customizable for various applications, including food and consumer goods packaging. Unlike conventional plastics that persist in the environment, our materials naturally degrade, leaving no harmful residues. By addressing plastic pollution and sargassum overgrowth simultaneously, our solution provides a sustainable, scalable, and circular alternative for global packaging needs.
