VANCOUVER, British Columbia – (BUSINESS WIRE) – Dec. September 2021–
Evanesce ®, a sustainable technology innovator looking to accelerate the adoption of sustainable and economically viable packaging solutions, will showcase its groundbreaking sustainable packaging technology at PACK EXPO Las Vegas. To counter the growing plastic pandemic, scientists and experts at Evanesce have developed a patented technology that produces cost-effective, 100% vegetable and 100% compostable sustainable packaging. The leading event for the packaging industry will take place at the Las Vegas Convention Center from September 27-29, 2021.
During the PACK EXPO, the company will present its two packaging technologies and its extensive range of packaging products. Its booth will showcase the patented Evanesce ® Molded Starch technology along with its high quality line of compostable PLA (polylactic acid) products, including straws, hot and cold cups and lids, plates, bowls, cutlery, gloves and resealable bags. Visitors to the stand can meet the top executive team and experience their plant-based packaging solutions in person.
“Our innovative technologies are intended to replace single-use plastics and Styrofoam in packaging and fundamentally change the industry. We are very excited to showcase our revolutionary patented Molded Starch technology at one of the largest packaging events in the world, ”said Douglas Horne, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Evanesce. “This innovation in materials science has the power to really change sustainable packaging. This event gives us an ideal opportunity to showcase our innovative packaging solutions, showcase the wide range of products and connect with industry leaders about opportunities for cooperative partnerships. “
Evanesce’s PLA products are already used by leading food service companies, restaurant chains and convenience stores and are comparable or cost-competitive with other alternatives, offer a significantly improved shelf life and are BPI-certified, commercially compostable. The patented Evanesce ® Molded Starch Technology produces 100% compostable packaging material at almost half the cost of other environmentally friendly alternatives on the market. The production of molded starch products, including food trays, meat trays, containers, and mugs, is expected in early 2022.
