Notpla

What do IBM, Siemens Energy and Notpla have in common? We’ve just been named one of the world’s Top 10 Sustainable Innovators by Sustainability Magazine. A reminder that the best ideas don’t just reduce harm, but they change the way we think about materials, energy, and industry. Notpla was founded on the belief that nature already has the answers, and we just need to embrace them. Seaweed doesn’t need energy-intensive process or a thousand years to break down. It just disappears, exactly as it should. Thank you James Darley for selecting us out of the many great innovators out there in the world - we're thrilled to represent all of those great businesses out there, focussed on new materials and solutions to plastic. Here's a link to the full list: https://lnkd.in/emmvJwde

🌍 Waste is a material problem. Let’s rethink it. Every year, the world generates over 2 billion tonnes of waste. Plastic packaging, textiles, electronics - it’s all just piling up, lasting for centuries to come. With waste management services just not equipped to deal with such volumes, where does it end? It’s time for a radical shift. Today’s the day that the United Nations ask us to come together and seek action. To look for circular solutions that can help reduce the weight of waste on the planet. At Notpla, we don’t just reduce waste - we make it disappear. Our natural, seaweed-based materials leave no trace, serving their packaging purpose before returning to the earth. No microplastics. No toxins. The opportunity for cutting waste is very real, not some far-off concept. An army of visionary people are out there today, willingly making it happen. They’re creating a future built on circularity, regenerative design, and innovation that works with nature, not against it. Today, and every day the world needs more needs new solutions to be adopted. What can you do to take action? #DayofZeroWaste #Notpla #SustainablePackaging

This Global Recycling Day, let’s go beyond the bin and rethink takeaway packaging. While recycling is important, we can aim for even better solutions to our plastic crisis. Did you know: ♻️ Only 9% of plastic ever produced has been recycled? 🌎 90% of plastic pollution comes from single-use items like takeaway boxes and cutlery. ⏰ Conventional packaging can take up to 500 years to break down, leaving microplastics in our environment. Notpla means no plastic. Using seaweed, we developed the first and only government verified plastic-free coating for food packaging. Let’s shift from waste management to waste elimination, and rethink where our waste ends up. 👉 Read more: https://lnkd.in/gJCbGbEA #GlobalRecyclingDay #EcoInnovation #PlasticFree #SustainablePackaging

A year ago, we set out to change stadium packaging for the better – this weekend, we were joined on the pitch with royalty to celebrate the impact. After an intense Six Nations clash between England and Wales at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, our co-founder Rodrigo met with the Prince and Princess of Wales (THR) and Jonathan Davies, MD of Levy UK + Ireland, to reflect on the tangible progress that’s been made in tackling plastic waste in stadiums. In just 12 months of working with Levy UK + Ireland, Notpla’s seaweed-lined food packaging has been rolled out across some of the world’s most iconic venues – from Villa Park to The O2, the Allianz Arena to the Kia Oval and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – helping to drive down plastic waste and lowering carbon impact at scale. Thanks to the support of Compass Cymru, Wales has been a nation to inspire others, switching to Notpla’s compostable packaging across all three of its major stadiums. This move alone is set to replace over 750,000 single-use plastic packaging items across Principality Stadium, Cardiff City FC, and the Swansea.com Stadium. This is what the future of sustainable sport should look like! As a proud The Earthshot Prize winner, we’re even more motivated to continue scaling our efforts in sustainability and driving positive change across the world. What’s your local stadium doing to tackle plastic waste? Drop a comment and let us know where you’d like to see the switch to Notpla next. #PlasticFreeMatchdays #Notpla #SustainableStadiums
