Sugarcane production has a much lower carbon footprint when compared to traditional petrochemical polymers. This is thanks to its ability to sequester carbon during growing, requiring less energy and using fewer chemicals in productional and finally its variety of compostable disposal options at end of life. By opting for sugarcane-derived alternatives of everyday products, like face masks and filters, consumers can support the development of a more sustainable and resilient economy.
Air pollution is a serious problem that affects people all over the world. It is a mixture of natural and man-made substances in the air that can be harmful to human health and the environment.

Allergies are caused by an overactive immune response to certain allergens, such as pollen, dust, and pet dander. When these irritants enter your body, your immune system may identify the intruder as harmful and create defenses to expel the threat.

The Yarra Yarra Corridor is located in a traditional wheat belt region of Western Australia and is one of only 34 international biodiversity hotspots. It is severely under threat from land clearing. We’ve teamed up with Carbon Neutral, who, since 2008 have been planting mixed native trees in the area, removing carbon from the atmosphere and increasing biodiversity to the region.
Wildfires produce dangerous gasses like carbon dioxide and methane and can burn out of control. Wildfires can start with a natural occurrence like a lightning strike or human error by lit cigarettes thrown carelessly. Wildfires can produce enough smoke that it visibly sits in the area surrounding the burn. When this occurs, there are lasting consequences.
Face masks come in many different forms ranging from a piece of cloth that covers the nose and mouth, providing a minimal layer of protection–all the way up to fine particle filtration masks with variable ratings.
