Our plans for the first and second year

These aims we'd like to reach First year: • Improve our product • Make our product more popular • Try to find a company which uses our product Second year: • Find more companies which will use our product (all over the EU) • Try to make more different plastic types (e.g.: water bottles)

Opportunities and Threats

Why the product is so great? • We could reduce plastic waste and pollution • We could be the future of food packaging But: • It’s not fully tested yet, so we have to spend more time in testing the product and the ingredients

Strengths and weaknesses of our product

Image
Positive and Negative aspects     So why is our product so good?     • Strengths: - F lexible - B io-degradable - Easy to produce - Dissolves in water  Here is how we ca n improve: • Weaknesses: - it isn’t water resistant  - it easily breaks when it’s ripped

Price and advertising

Economic reasons for our product • It costs a maximum of 1.80 Euro for 1 kg of our plastic (It could be less if we buy more ingredients at once) • The advertising will be on social media, on our own website or with business cards to reach a wider audience Website: ( https://www.ecowrap.weebly.com )

The many reasons people will want to buy our product…

Why you should use our product and nothing else? • It is environmentally friendly • It is durable • It is a renewable product • It is non-toxic • The card is 100% recyclable • The plastic is 100% Bio-degradable • It‘s not only for cereals (crisps, nuts, sweets, etc.)

Our business

Image
First Europe then the world! • Cereal companies from all over the EU will request us to sell  them the  recipe.  As well as giving them the bioplastic package,  we will also pack their product • Our customers will first be based in Europe then it will become  global

Business aims

What do we want to do with our product? I mprove our environment Reduce waste Save the planet Clear the waters of plastic waste

The finished result

Image
So why is our bioplastic product so good? • The future of food packaging • Crude oil, which plastic is made of, will be gone in around 50 years • Normal bioplastics cannot disintegrate in composting plants because they need too much time to disintegrate • Our bioplastic is unique because it will disintegrate when it’s in contact with water • So, by using our bioplastic, there will be no waste problem

Chemical Structure

This is the boring theory behind it

Recipe

I bet if I asked you how to make plastic you would have no idea! Did you know that you could make plastic in your kitchen in 20 minutes! Still listening? Here's how: 310 ml water 1.2 ml glycerine 1 teaspoon sodium alginate i n structions : heat and stir/mix! We believe this method is the best way to create a transparent film for food packaging.
