Major companies operating in the plastic-free packaging market are focusing on innovative edible packaging alternatives, such as plant-sourced barrier coating, to reduce plastic waste and provide sustainable and innovative solutions for customers. A plant-sourced barrier coating is an eco-friendly material derived from plants, used to provide a protective layer on packaging surfaces. This coating acts as a barrier to moisture, air, oils, and other elements that could compromise the integrity of the packaged product. For instance, in January 2022, Melodea Ltd., an Israel-based producer of packaging solutions, launched two sustainable, plant-based plastic alternatives for packaging made from cellulose crystals extracted from wood pulp sourced from trees grown in industrial forests. The new materials include MelOx, a high-performance barrier coating that provides protection against oxygen, oil, and grease transmission, and Melodea VBcoat, which offers protection from water vapor as well as oil and grease transmission. These innovations underline the industry’s shift toward more eco-friendly and functional packaging solutions.
