Ep 26B: Interview with Gaute Juliussen, CEO of Toraphene, on high performance sustainable packaging Talk Green to Me

Graphene is a Nobel Prize winning material. How can you use this nanotechnology to improve the sustainability and performance of packaging? We talk with Gaute Juliussen, CEO of Toraphene, on how they developed a green way to manufacture graphene and include it in compostable, biodegradable, and recycled plastic bags, cups, and more. Gaute discusses how graphene and nanotech help make natural materials more competitive with virgin fossil fuel plastics in packaging. We discuss the difference between biodegradable and compostable materials, what to look out for, and what we all can do to make more informed sustainable choices.
