Transforming Food Residues into Future Resources: Bio’c and Burn’tShell

Cetinler and Ertem, innovators in bio-based materials, offer Bio'C and Burn'tShell as solutions to the disposable plastics problem.

With over 350 million metric tons of annual plastic waste, urgent innovation is needed to combat pollution.

Cetinler's project, presented at the online Dutch Design Week, marked the launch of Bio'c.

Bio'c aims to overhaul the packaging industry with non-destructive, single-use plastics.

They're reshaping takeaway packaging by harnessing food residues and employing innovative methods.

Bio'c uses biomaterials to integrate auxiliary ingredients, like sauces, directly into the packaging.

Burn'tShell designs feature eggshells and tapioca starch, promoting sustainable materials.

Each Burn'tShell unit repurposes about 30 eggshells into its outer shell.

Bio'c and Burn’tShell advance sustainable design by repurposing food waste, working towards a less wasteful, resourceful, and safer environment.
