As we head towards the plastic pollution crisis, OXO Packaging takes a step towards sustainability by introducing product packaging bags that are made from the biopolymers of seaweed. Bringing innovation to the packaging industry, we use cutting-edge technology that processes seaweed to create robust yet flexible packaging material.

The process involves extracting biopolymers from seaweed and dissolving them in a specialized solution. Afterward, a solution casting process converts the prepared solution into films of personalized thickness. These seaweed films are then used to create a wide range of packaging solutions—sachets, pouches, tote bags, etc.

Seaweed packaging is a biodegradable, renewable, and compostable material, sourced from an abundant marine plant. Better yet, it helps absorb carbon and supports marine biodiversity, making it one of the rare packaging materials that’s not only sustainable but restorative.

“Our goal has always been to merge innovation with impact,” says the CEO, Salman Shahid. “Sustainable packaging is not just another green label, it’s a tangible solution to one of the biggest challenges our planet faces. And as a packaging company, we feel responsible for offering real alternatives.”

The move isn’t just driven by ideology; it’s rooted in consumer behavior. Research shows that more than 80% of buyers prefer buying items packed in sustainable packaging.

Sustainable seaweed packaging of OXO Packaging not only meets sustainability goals but also satisfies consumer needs that no retail brand can overlook.
