Hello, hello! We heard Sharon Barak speak at the Rethinking Materials conference, and were amazed by her company Solutum, their products, and her.

As she showed off her product completely dissolving in water, and her dedication to the solving the plastic problem - it was a no brainer to have her on Good Garbage, to talk about sustianable packaging, regeneration, and a love for leaving the planet cleaner.

Sharon is also the second guest in a row we have had on from Israel - the timing just worked out like this, and we are happy to give both her and Daphna an opportunity to escape the reality of what is happening around them. We wish for peace and safety to everyone in that area.

Hello, hello! It's been a dream of ours to have TIPA represented on the Good Garbage podcast, and what better way for the dream to come true then with CEO Daphna Nissenbaum.

Her journey in this industry started on a jog, when she thought about how we would package if there was no packaging at all. Daphna came to the conclusion that all packaging needs to be compostable, and needs to have the ability to go into the organic waste stream.
