Orange-Peel-Based Food Packaging Developed by Student
Bio-Peel, a new material unveiled by Brunel University London design student Denny Handley, blends waste orange peels with a mixture of other biodegradable products to create a new packaging material that’s strong, malleable and environmentally friendly.
“Initially I had the idea that you could use all the waste produced making 1 liter of orange juice to create the carton,” said Handley, a product design student at Brunel University London. “But the material itself steadily degrades in water, so I looked for other applications for it.”
