Awareness is the first step. Followed by ongoing education. Followed by action. When innovators create game-changing solutions that can make a difference, we all need to talk about it. This is one of those technologies -- like RWDC's Solon PHA -- that is changing the game. Spread the word.

关于我们
RWDC Industries is on a mission to replace petroleum-derived materials with safe, sustainable alternatives. We have developed technology to harvest outputs of a microbial fermentation process using plant-based oils that produces a naturally occurring biodegradable polymer called PHA (or polyhydroxylalkanoate). PHA’s are biopolymers naturally produced by microbial fermentation of plant-based oils or sugar. RWDC’s PHA — Solon — is certified by TüV Austria to be fully biodegradable in soil, water and marine conditions. Solon is 100% biodegradable with no toxic residue. Solon is a global solution to today’s plastic waste management challenge, and it's an ideal material for replacing petroleum-derived, single-use plastics — such as cutlery, cups, bags, plates and bowls. Solon safely biodegrades in natural environments, leaving absolutely no harmful remains or byproducts.

Dr. Daniel Carraway, Co-Founder and CEO of RWDC Industries, recently participated in the "How is Environmental Sustainability Transforming Packaging Today and in the Future?" panel at the Future of Packaging Conference. Dr. Carraway highlighted the significance of the global microplastics problem and the urgent need to replace traditional plastics with sustainable alternatives like PHA. He emphasized that while recycling is important, it alone is not sufficient to address the plastic pollution crisis. See the article link for more insight. https://lnkd.in/dp6cjGkP

A quick Google search of "Bottled water contains nanoplastics" yields dozens of articles and news videos surrounding the recent groundbreaking study that revealed plastic-shedding is indeed a problem and that people are ingesting more plastic than previously thought. Is anyone truly surprised by this? The bigger question: What are the healthier alternatives to plastics? We know of one solution: PHA. Let's start the conversation about alternatives (PHA) in addition to educating the masses about the problem we've been aware of for a long time but are just coming around to acknowledging. Remember when four out of five doctors preferred Marlboro cigarettes? Yeah, not so long ago. We're facing the same issue with plastics today. We need to change the conversation. Who wants to join RWDC in getting the word out? https://lnkd.in/gYyqh6T7

The alternatives plastics industry often does more harm than good by creating narratives that fit a business model vs. what's best for every living thing on the planet. BUT, there is hope: PHA is being praised as a promising replacement for single-use plastics. https://lnkd.in/g-eh3QDy

Part of the change process is sharing meaningful information to help educate the masses. Unfortunately, most of the news is not that positive, including this article. But people beyond those who read trade and science reports need to hear the news, too. We will post more information like this; not that we want to, but because we have to. https://lnkd.in/gkvyrNVD
