    From Greenhouse Gas to Green Polymers with Molly Morse | #72

    Hello, hello! Here’s a riddle - What do Methane and Mangoes have in common? We’ll have to ask Molly Morse and find out!    CEO and co-founder of Mango Materials, Molly is working to produce biodegradable plastics (PHA) made from waste biogas that are economically competitive with conventional oil-based plastics.     Her journey from a civil engineer to doing her PhD in bio-based materials is inspiring to say the least! It also set her up to become an entrepreneur and work towards changing the regenerative packaging landscape.   A women-led company, Molly along with Allison Pieja Anne Schauer-Gimenez, started Mango Materials to turn their academic research into a reality.     Mango Materials, named after their favorite fruit, has developed a way to turn methane gas into a form of biodegradable plastics as a pellet!    Tune in to find out how they take this green gas and turn it into PHA pellets that are now being used in injection mouldings, fibres and food packaging!   Never miss an episode by following us on all our socials by clicking on the link below!   linktr.ee/goodgarbage   Don’t forget to⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ turn on your notifications⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠leave us a review⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🌱

    Closures for a Cleaner Planet with Lars Sandberg | #71

    Hello, hello! We’re continuing strong in 2025 as we welcome the CEO of Blue Ocean Closures, Lars Sandberg in our second episode of this year!   With a mechanical engineering background and a speciality in paper and pulp, Lars used his expertise in fibre to create cellulose bases closures.   These cellulose fibers are strong, biobased and biodegradable and do not leave behind any microplastics when breaking down in nature. In this episode, we discuss at length the barrier technology, durability and dispersion coating of these closures.   Scalability is one of their main features and we discuss the experience and challenges of working with industry bigwigs like Absolut, Coca Cola, and L’oreal!   Tune in to get an insight into the development of these biobased closures and the journey of the man behind it all - Lars Sandberg!   Never miss an episode by following us on all our socials by clicking on the link below!   linktr.ee/goodgarbage   Don’t forget to⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ turn on your notifications⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠leave us a review⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🌱
