Most in the packaging industry agree that circularity is the way forward. Many are employing innovative materials and design techniques to create packaging that is either reusable or recyclable, but there is a third route to take that is growing in popularity – compostable packaging.
As a member of the Compostable Coalition group, TIPA has placed itself at the forefront of these conversations. “There’s a lot of doubt around compostables as a mainstream solution, often focused on composting timescales and feasibility. We’re trying to address this through the work the Coalition is doing by unpicking those doubts and delivering quality information to help people make decisions based on the facts.
Tee is keen to stress the collaborative work of the Compostable Coalition. It consists of 10 stakeholders that can be split into three broad groups. The compostable packaging segment is represented by TIPA, Futamura, Vegware, and Biome Bioplastics.
Biome Technologies plc (LON:BIOM) is a growth oriented, commercially driven technology group. The Group’s primary activity is the development of its fast growing business in bioplastics. The Group comprises two divisions: Biome Bioplastics and Stanelco RF Technologies.
