Seaweed-based Products
[INQ. NO. 2311C15] The whole world is talking about plastic pollution, and we’re in the midst of a war on waste.
Janoodam (Brand) stands not only as a testament to eco-innovation but also offers a tangible solution to environmental issues like microplastics at their very root. Seaweed, a nature-based material found in the sea, is seen as a future solution to combat climate change.
The Janoodam collection, made of 100% eco-friendly material, is manufactured through an environmentally friendly process. They have developed greener alternatives to plastics and wood using seaweed, which does not harm animals, humans, or nature. Moreover, it offers a root solution to microplastics, which cause significant damage to human cells in recent times.
The application of this novel material is endless. Janoodam showcases a wide range of single-use items across various sectors, including F&B franchises, retailers, hotels, airlines, and more, offering food containers, and collaborates with global brands in fashion, cosmetics, consumer goods, etc., for industrial packaging. They are challenging themselves to be more environmentally friendly and work on a new generation of tailored products.
These seaweed-based products have set new industry benchmarks. Not only are they biodegradable within 56 days, but they are also documented with international certifications, such as DIN CERTCO for biodegradability. Furthermore, the seaweed-based food containers are eco-labeled, proven to be microplastic-free, and have excellent water and oil resistance. Egg cartons, for instance, when made with 13% seaweed, have proven in antibacterial tests to kill bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella up to 99.9%.
Apart from being environmentally impactful, Janoodam has earned Presidential commendations, awards from the Prime Minister, and 6 Ministries in its homeland. It was also a nominee for the 2023 Edison Award, Meaningful Business 100, WPO, and APF, proof of its technology innovation and sustainable materials making a difference for the environment.
Marine Innovation Co., Ltd., established in 2019, is replacing traditional wood and plastic with eco-friendly materials derived from natural sources, primarily seaweed. Their mission is to combat climatic crises, environmental pollution, and food shortages, making the world greener for future generations.
