Sustainability isn’t just about recycling, its also about producing the raw material sustainably in the first place.
The Dutch company Vibers has developed a biobased formulation that includes 10% Elephant grass. This type of grass grows incredibly efficient and catches 4 times the amount of CO2 per acre compared to a regular European forest. It’s grown on fallow soil not used for food cultivation and doesn’t need additional irrigation.
What nature provides is enough for this plant to thrive. Due to the leaves being discarded overtime the soil receives important nutrients and revitalizes the soil. Once a year the crop is harvested, but only the tops, therefor the biodiversity remains intact.
We’re really proud to be the first company in New Zealand & Australia to make this revolutionary filament available to try & reduce impact in every way possible.
