Notpla – Emerging as Edible and Biodegradable Alternative for Plastic Packaging
The firm offers sustainable and transparent packaging made from seaweed to substitute plastic
Everyone is acquainted with the adverse effects of using plastic. People usually talk about recycling plastic but don’t you think recycling more plastic would eventually raise the plastic demand even further? If you do not support the use of plastic then say no to plastic! Notpla, a sustainable London-based startup, has successfully developed edible and biodegradable packaging that can efficiently replace plastic.
Notpla, an abbreviation used for “No Plastic,” aims at substituting plastic packaging completely. Their product “Ooho” is an excellent alternative to the plastic sachet. The sachet is fully biodegradable and can be composted, too. The edible package is made of seaweed and can contain water or any liquid inside. It is the perfect solution to store beverages and sauces, such as water, instant coffee or oil.
Here are listed some of the amazing Ooho packaging offered by the startup.
Instant Coffee
Are you a coffee lover? Well, there is no need to throw the wrapping of your favorite drink in the dustbin anymore, instead, you can dissolve it into your drink making it nutritious with this packet of instant coffee. A brilliant way to reduce disposable coffee bags.

Water Sachet
This is an effective solution to dismiss your instant thirst. It can also be consumed by runners during sporting events because of its “grab-and-go” nature. The sustainable packaging is claimed to degrade within four to six weeks or you can simply eat it.
