soybeans are crushed to extract the juice that is utilized to create bean curd and soy milk. A porridge-like residue is what is left, and it is typically discarded. it undergoes a fermenting process with the mushy remains. Microbes consume the nutrients, leaving cellulose, a type of fiber, behind.
Since a few years, cellulose-based plastic covers have been available on the market, but the majority of them are created from wood or specially grown corn. Soy-based packaging wrap, however, is more sustainable because it is manufactured from a waste product rather than competing with food crops for space.
With this method, it might be possible to reduce both the manufacturing of plastic and the quantity of food waste dumped in landfills.
Another difficulty is biodegradability. Only after prolonged exposure to temperatures above 50 degrees Celsius can some bioplastics completely degrade. There have been worries expressed that bioplastics can contribute to the plastic pollution issue if they are not disposed of in appropriate facilities.
The Global Soy-based packaging market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
Soy-based packaging, which can be discarded in a landfill or left in nature, is used to make the new packaging. It does not have a white coating that makes the paper difficult to decompose and is 100 percent biodegradable.
In addition, soybean oil, rather than petroleum, is used to make the ink used to print the messages on the packaging. This ink is more environmentally friendly and won’t hurt plants or animals if the packaging is dropped into a river or the ocean.
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), which lessen air pollution and make it simpler to recycle packaging and separate ink from printed matter, are also present in it. Even though the package is free of plastic, the product keeps its weight whether kept in a refrigerator or other high-temperature environment.
Beginning with three SKUs in the beverage line, including Singha Cancollar: size 320 ml., packed in 4 cans; size 320 ml., packed in 6 cans; and including Singha Basket, size 490 ml., packed in 4 cans, Singha introduces new packaging under the name “Singha Sustainable Pack” by switching from using Shrink Film to using 100% biodegradable Soy-based packaging.
