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.
