“BioPak has created a real alternative to plastic cups integrating a circular economy approach by making them 100 percent biodegradable. This innovation certainly tackles the global plastic challenge today, it is scalable and can provide huge impact worldwide’, said Ethical Corporation Awards chair of the judging committee, Christine Diamente.
BioPak CEO Gary Smith was thrilled with the result, especially given the calibre of fellow nominees. The winner of the category was LIXIL Corporation, which produces a product series called SATO to address the global sanitation crisis.
