Company Info
- Company Description
- OkeanosĀ® is the developer of Made From StoneĀ®, a new category of packaging technology developed to reduce the amount of plastic in packaging, and in turn, reduce the amount of plastic in our Okeanos - the oceans we share. We supply leading brands and manufacturers with our proprietary compounds, which can be used to replace the majority of plastic resin in single-use items with stone. The end result is a cost neutral product with up to 65% less plastic, a significantly lower overall carbon footprint, and the ability to be made recyclable or degradable. Made From Stone is the only immediate, viable, scalable solution to the single-use plastic problem.
Our most recent project was to design a film structure that could replace packaging on items that required high barrier properties (OTR and MVTR). Think potato chip and other snack bags. With Okeanos' compound, we are able to not only meet, but exceed the desired properties needed to keep the brands product fresh and delicious.
