  1. MaterialKarta-pack BagasseThis packaging material is made from bagasse, fibrous matter that remains after sugarcane stalks are crushed to extract their juice, creating a biodegradable material. Karta-Pack provides an environmentally friendly alternative to plastic packaging and is also available from other biobased materials, such as a cotton/bagasse mix and bamboo. 
  2. MaterialSugarcane Bagasse CompositesBagaceira transforms sugarcane bagasse, one of the world's most abundant agricultural byproducts, into high-performance, biodegradable composites for interior design. By combining bagasse with natural binders, they create resource-efficient and low-carbon materials with fibrous textures and warm hues.
  3. MaterialKarta-Pack bagasse-cotton mixKarta-Pack is an environmentally friendly alternative to toxic, dangerous and ubiquitous plastic packaging.  The package is comprised of compostable and biodegradable material, cotton and bagasse (a waste material from sugar production).  The salable article is nestled safely inside.

  6. MaterialShiro paperShiro Alga Carta began life as a way to use the damaging algal blooms of the Venice lagoon. Shiro Tree Free uses the fibres from annual plants such as bamboo, cotton or bagasse. Because there is no tree content, there is no FSC certification. Shiro Echo is the highest quality recycled paper. Produced from 100% post-consumer recycled waste.
  7. MaterialSugarcrete® Acoustic BoardSugarcrete® Acoustic Board is a bio-based interior panel made from sugarcane bagasse fibres and biodegradable mineral binders. The board combines acoustic and thermal performance with a circular material approach. It is free from synthetic resins and VOCs, fire-resistant (Class B-s1 d0), and designed to be fully recyclable or compostable at the end of its life cycle.
