Can we say So Long to Plastic? Feb 28, 2022

we’ve spoken to plastic alternative innovators on this podcast before. Wouldn’t it be great if there was a lovely space online to showcase these innovations - heck maybe even with an award?
BEYONDPLASTIC is the brainchild of Ulrich Krzyminski, an entrepreneur, engineer & inventor with a particular insight into the printing and packaging industry. As well as showcasing plastic alternatives, they have the Beyond Plastic Awards with categories like Most Practical Impact’, ‘Most Innovative Approach’, and ‘Most Beautiful Solution’. And not only that, they’ve put all the innovations and solutions they discovered into a beautiful book!

Talking to me from his home in Frankfurt Germany here’s Beyond Plastic Founder Ulrich Krzyminski

The end of plastic? Jul 28, 2021

What if everything that looked like plastic wasn’t? What if it was something better? Better in that it was a truly biodegradable material, and a product that wasn’t just carbon neutral but carbon negative? In that it takes harmful greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere in its creation?

California-based Newlight Technologies have spent more than a decade developing a revolutionary material called AirCarbon. It uses greenhouse gas as feedstock to create a meltable, carbon-negative material that can be used as a replacement for plastic, leather, fibers, and more. AirCarbon is a natural material and contains no synthetic plastics, PLA or synthetic glues, requires no food crops for production and is home compostable, soil degradable and ocean-friendly, degrading naturally if it ends up in the environment.

Today I am really excited to be talking to Mark Herrema, Co Founder and CEO of Newlight Technologies.

Wine that helps protect the ocean Apr 03, 2021

Did someone say beveragino…?

Seachange Wine are passionate about two things: protecting our oceans from plastic pollution and great tasting wine.

Simon Rolfe from Seachange talks innovation in wine packaging, why people want to buy from a company that does good. Covid & wine and climate change and the wine industry. And the issues around organic wine production…
