1 hr 12 min - #64 Disrupting the Food Packaging Industry with Ralph Bianculli
A disruptor in the food packaging industry before it became a buzzword, Ralph Bianculli is a force to reckon with.
Inspired by his son’s depleting health in the mid 1990s, he invested in research to find solutions to manufacture food packaging using materials that are “respectful to the environment”
From being an integral part of a company that was at one point the biggest distributors of foam cups to now running Emerald Ecovations that produces “Tree Free” and “Plastic Free” disposable food service, sanitation, and every day paper products - his journey is nothing short of inspirational.
Join Ved Krishna in decoding what motivates this industry pioneer now more than ever to manufacture, motivate and educate in the field of sustainable packaging.
