Our mission

At Notpla we are on a
mission to make
packaging disappear
A sustainable packaging start-up at the
forefront of creating a new future.

We are on a mission to replace conventional food packaging by
pioneering the use of seaweed as an alternative to single-use
plastic.

Our solution

We’ve developed three food-specific
product lines
that solve the plastic problem:
 Notpla Sachets

Made from seaweed and plants

Easily compostable at home

Degrade naturally and completely sustainable

 Notpla Film

 Notpla Coating

Our packaging is made from
sustainably-sourced seaweed;
one of nature’s most
renewable resources*
We only use seaweed is sourced from responsible, environmentally-conscious suppliers

Our method

Why we use seaweed
 • Grows rapidly, is globally abundant and readily available
 • Doesn’t compete with food crops for land
 • Doesn’t need fresh water or fertiliser to grow
 • Actively sequesters CO2 and de-acidifies the oceans

Our difference

 PLA and other bioplastics require specific recycling
It takes less than six weeks for our pathways and specialised industrial composting
packaging to completely decompose in a equipment to degrade.
