- November 2022 - Upward Farms, an organic vertical farming company, developed a new resealable packaging design for its USDA-certified organic microgreens. Compared to conventional clamshells, Upward Farms' new sealed plastic trays are stackable and more straightforward to open and close, extending the shelf life of microgreens. The resealable design uses 38% less plastic than the typical greens clamshell form and is constructed from post-consumer recycled plastic. It provides customers with a more environmentally friendly option.
- April 2022 - An agreement for producing big eco-friendly bags was signed between Yara Brasil and Packem SA. The containers used to store and transport agricultural inputs, such as fertilizer, are big bags. When searching for a replacement for polypropylene, a material used to make bags but currently subject to restrictions in terms of recycling and reprocessing, they discovered PET/PCR, the plastic processed after consumption, as the ideal replacement, giving rise to the first recycled and entirely recyclable plastic packaging in Brazilian agriculture.
