GO CIRCULAR
The traditional economic model is linear
and can be simplified as having three basic
stages: take, make and waste. BioPak
has a commitment to disrupt this outdated
model and to invest in a waste-free future
– where innovative design and corporate
responsibility intersect to create a circular,
and regenerative economy.
Plant-Based Raw Materials
Our plant-based products are designed to
minimise the impact on our environment
at each stage of their life cycle, by using
materials that are both sustainably sourced
and rapidly renewable. The footprint of these
renewable materials is significantly smaller
than that of traditional plastics derived from
fossil resources – Ingeo™ bioplastic, for
instance, has a footprint up to 80% lower.

The End is Just the Beginning
Our products are designed to turn into compost
– a new, valuable and locally produced resource
at the end of their useful life. A thin layer of
compost can mitigate climate change by
improving the soil’s ability to stabilise carbon and
by increasing plant growth, which pulls more
carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.
