Unveiling the sustainable aspects of Ecomusk R! A rich, powdery and nourishing musk and its dark fruity aspects support fruity themes on a broad level such as apple and red fruit. Derived from Crude Sulfate Turpentine (CST) from pine trees, a by-product of the paper industry, we transform this upcycled feedstock into a musky fragrance ingredient. Through innovative and green chemistry processes, we maximize the use of these materials that would otherwise go unused, striving for a zero-waste future.

Cass Materials, with its innovative bio-based foams for sustainable packaging, is part of BioInnovation's "fast track" Hypothesis testing step 1. The project will show that Cass’ foams, using the cellulose fibre reject from the Domsjö Fabriker AB pulp mill, are a sustainable alternative to fossil-based packaging materials. Cass’ foams can be made into any shape or size for the protection and cushioning of fragile goods. #circulareconomy #biobased #bioeconomy BioInnovation Skogsindustrierna IKEM - Innovations- och kemiindustrierna i Sverige TEKO, Sveriges Textil- och Modeföretag Vinnova Swedish Energy Agency Formas, a Swedish Research Council for Sustainable Development Domsjö Fabriker AB Borregaard

A sparkling dilemma... Littering our homes, clinging to our clothes, and showing up in the most unexpected places, glitter has earned a reputation for being both enchanting and infuriating. But beyond its annoyance lies a more significant concern—glitter's widespread presence, not just in our living spaces but also in the farthest corners of our planet. Most glitter is made from a combination of aluminum and plastic, rendering it a microplastic. Unlike other microplastics that result from the breakdown of larger plastic items over time, glitter comes in its environmentally hazardous form right from the start, meant purely for our enjoyment. However, a positive change is on the horizon as retailers like Morrisons, Waitrose, and John Lewis in the UK have taken a stand against glitter in recent years, pledging to remove it from their store-brand Christmas products. The search for sustainable alternatives to conventional glitter has led some manufacturers to delve into developing eco-friendly versions of this glimmering substance. A notable breakthrough has come from the University of Saskatchewan, where researchers have unveiled a biodegradable glitter innovation named ChiralGlitter. This groundbreaking product is plant-based, derived from a substance found in plant cell walls. It harnesses the natural process of producing structural colours, resulting in sparkles like no other. Apart from its dazzling appearance, ChiralGlitter's most significant advantage is its biodegradability—unlike traditional glitter that lingers in the environment for centuries, this eco-friendly option breaks down naturally, mitigating plastic pollution and reducing its impact on the Earth. With glitter being a popular element in packaging, cosmetics, and various other products, the demand for sustainable alternatives is growing rapidly. The University of Cambridge and other institutions have also joined the quest for biodegradable solutions. But they do caution one problem can't fixed—it will still scatter around your home and be as annoying to parents as it's ever been. Glitter, love it or loathe it—where do you stand in this sparkly debate? #packaging #sustainability #sustainablepackaging #environment

Hope everyone is having lovely Tuesday. Video number 5 from Mercel shows how Algumer can replace microplastics in the personal care industry. Initially, we thought that it would just be a rheology modifier to replace fossil fuel derived carbomers, but it is so much more! I mentioned the binding capabilities in video 3, and whats more it can also act as an emulsifier. So you have one green, biodegradable, futureproof product that could mean you leave out many that are harmful to the planet! It is even easier to use than a lot of these products. What it does take is a commitment to build your formulations using Algumer as a base and finding out what you don't actually need. So forget about that trade name you can't pronounce, that you only add because it's been added for the last 50 years and no-one actually knows why. #seaweed #nanocellulose #cellulose #circularity #greenchemistry #zerowaste #futureproof Contact: dominic.orourke@mercel.co.uk Mark Dorris Alastair Kennedy - MIEx

Climate Salad GGP Member of the moment: newera.bio 👗 👚 👕 Newera Bio is at the forefront of transforming colour production, embracing nature to pioneer low-carbon colour solutions through advanced biotechnology. "By leveraging microbial fermentation and our proprietary technology, we've developed sustainable colour alternatives that not only match the vibrancy and durability of synthetic counterparts but also drastically reduce water and chemical usage. Microbial Fermentation: Our dyes are produced through precision fermentation, where microbes are engineered to produce colour compounds efficiently. This process significantly lowers the environmental footprint, reducing emissions compared to traditional dye manufacturing, and minimizing water and energy consumption. Our processes avoid harmful byproducts and reduce dependency on non-renewable resources. Colour enhancement by proprietary technology: Our proprietary technology enhances the performance of native dyes and pigments for textile applications, to minimize the use of water, energy and chemicals for dyeing process. This ensures that our dyes are safe for both the environment and human health. It also provides cost savings in wastewater treatment and environmental remediation, making them economically viable for industries."

Which #Scope4 avoided emissions are stuck in sawdust? Why not look in the test tubes? I visited Boreal Bioproducts to get my hands on some of the extractions their team is pulling out of the lumber sector. Based in #Espoo, Finland 🇫🇮, they use a chemical free, hot water pressurization process to capture valuable sugars for use with food, cosmetics, coatings, and even glue. Jaakko Pajunen, managing director, brought me through the research lab to see the R&D in action! On the tour, I met Alexander Henn, their lignin technology expert, filling up a beaker with resins from the latest experiment. He's continuing to refine the next generation of extracts that will continue to make their products stand out as sustainable alternatives to synthetic fibers and resins. ClimatePoint takes inspiration from solutions like these to connect founders with corporations facing environmental challenges and emission reduction targets. Through dynamic #LCA and #impactInvestment structures that follow #Article9 of the #SFDR, we can effectively #quantify the impact of these offerings and align them with #CSRD reporting standards. This sticky solution is just the beginning of their extended product line, so look forward to learning more about how they can improve our everyday materials! Antti Kamarainen, market development director, showed me just a few possibilities coming off the shelf. Did you ever think there #wood be so many opportunities? #Helsinki, #Finland Metsä Group , Metsä Board , Metsä Tissue ClimatePoint Green River Fund

Plastic. It's the polyester in our wardrobes that pollutes the water life on earth needs to thrive. It's the polyethylene and polystyrene single use packaging that ends up in the natural environment unable to degrade. It's the ubiquitous polyurethane in what we wear and carry derived from toxic isocyanates. We're addicted to it but it doesn't have to be this way. Jacqueline Ros Amable CEO of Matereal, Cyrill Gutsch CEO of Parley for the Oceans and Julia Marsh CEO of Sway are just three of the visionaries speaking and exhibiting at our Paris summit working on alternatives that are more in harmony with our planet. #plasticalternatives #biomaterials #packaginginnovation #BiofabParisSummit #bioinnovation #bioeconomy

🎨 As part of our quick founder questions series – or #QFQ – we spoke to Dr Benjamin Droguet, Founder & CEO of Sparxell, about creating #unique, bio-inspired, chemical-free colours as an alternative to environmentally destructive synthetic #colourants. "At Sparxell, we have developed a unique, bio-inspired, chemical-free way to make #colours. We considered that if #plants and #animals can #create magnificent colours for themselves, why couldn’t we replicate that in #industry?" "Certain things need to be done at the right time, in the right order, laid down and planned. Be a master of #time and #planning." https://lnkd.in/eCTbFRX3
