How straw material waste can help reduce CO2 emissions

Burning agricultural straw residue is a common method to dispose of waste after harvesting seasons in some parts of the world.

 

Burning agricultural straw residue is a common method to dispose of waste after harvesting seasons in some parts of the world. While being a traditional practice, it’s also one that increases CO2 emissions in the atmosphere. EdgePak Straw is a sustainable packaging solution made from straw waste. Besides being recyclable, the solution avoids straw waste being burnt which in turn contributes to reducing CO2 emissions. The local communities also benefit from it by earning money from the residue of their crops.

At Nefab, we optimize packaging and logistics solutions that generate benefits for customers, for society and for the environment.

    How to Protect Semiconductor Manufacturing Equipment in Transit?

    Semiconductor manufacturing leaves no room for error. Every process, every component, every piece of equipment operates within microscopic tolerances, and that precision can’t be compromised once the machines leave the cleanroom. Yet, shipping high-value parts such as electrostatic chucks, pedestals, or showerheads introduces a whole new layer of risk.
