Good Garbage with Ved Krishna – Détails, épisodes et analyse

The Good Garbage team is always excited to have a guest give us a customer’s perspective on sustainable packaging, and that’s what we have for you in this episode! 

Maddie Hamann is the co-founder of Pacha, a gluten-free organic bread. Their ingredients are sourced from regenerative agriculture, and their bread is packaged in a home compostable bread bag.  

With brands, big and small, complaining about the sustainable packaging technology not having enough viable options for mass production, Pacha’s sheer determination to be an eco-conscious brand at its core is what makes them stand apart.

In this episode, we not only learn about Pacha’s brand values, but also hear about Maddie Hamann’s fascinating career transition - from studying civil engineering to oceanography and then pivoting to starting a gluten free bread business with her partner and three other co-founders – and why she calls herself a “Renaissance Woman”.

Listen in to this episode to learn about how Pacha went out of its way to ensure all their ingredients are sourced from regenerative farmland only and what are the overall financial, moral, and even marketing implication of choosing to be an eco-conscious business owner.

For years, Simone Schuppan incorporated smalls habits in her daily life for adhering to a more sustainable lifestyle - whether it be using public transport or avoiding single use plastic. Little did she know though that her work would also become all about sustainability!

When the pandemic hit and forced her to reassess her professional choices, it was clear to her that she wanted to do something that aligned with her values. This is how she became the Founder and Managing Partner of c2Impact.

With c2impact, Simone believes in putting her expertise in research and marketing skills to good use by helping companies demonstrate how their greentech solutions are not only a sustainable choice, but also a profitable one for businesses.

An entrepreneur with an endless thirst for finding a solution to the unknown, Scott Segal found his calling when he went back to his roots and decided to find a solution to the billions of pizza boxes ending up in landfills.

The “barrier” which prevented these boxes from being biodegradable is polyethylene and that’s where JANUS comes into the picture.

With sheer will power and determination, Scott’s company J & J Green Paper was able to find an ingenious solution inspired by the organic barriers used in lipsticks! How you ask? Well for that, you’ll have to join Ved Krishna in understanding how Scott Segal made the impossible possible with JANUS – his propriety backyard compostable barrier formulation.

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.
