How to be more sustainable and reduce the environmental impact of plastic packaging?

Flexible packaging demands our attention from three main life cycle areas:
- Reuse: Developments that extend the useful life of plastic packaging.
- Recycle: Processes to recover this valuable material for new products.
- Renew: Progressive substitution of organic raw materials over traditional non-renewable ones.

Oysterlean by NaturePlast
Oysterlean is a final product resulting from the refinement of a biomarine waste material from seashells. The shells
are collected, refined and transformed into pellets that are made adaptable and viable for use by the plastic
packaging industry. The potential of a bio-renewable resin capable of replacing petroleum-based plastics in
progressive percentages up to 100% bio-renewable.

The carbon footprint of Oysterlean is about five times lower than that of conventional plastics (PE and PP).
Since more than 75% of Oysterlean is a biomarine waste from shell culture, the bioregeneration cycle of this
material is 4-6 months until it becomes waste.

We have worked to create solid alliances with the Ecuadorian industry for the development and supply of flexible
packaging capable of meeting the highest quality standards required by the floriculture industry.
