CMYK Ingredients
Sofia
CMYK Ingredients is a biotech innovator reimagining how we nourish the world—through science, sustainability, and simplicity. They engineer plant-based ingredients using fermentation, sprouting, and dehydration technologies that preserve nutrition without chemicals or waste. Their mission is clear: make clean, functional food accessible while protecting the planet. From AI-powered dehydration to their award-winning Leckar brand of long-shelf-life botanicals, CMYK Ingredients is reshaping the future of food. Packaging, as a fundamental part of the vision and protection of the products, also needed to respond to the innovative CMYK approach. The challenge of being crystal clear, yet compostable and environmentally friendly, led them directly to us, as this is the hallmark of our PACK'ON Crystal range. Today, their ingredients travel the world in packaging that is as smart and responsible as the food it protects.
CMYK uses PACK'ON Crystal which generates only 1.682 kg of CO₂ per kg - significantly lower than 4.076 kg from PET and 3.690 kg from PP. With 100 kg used yearly, this reduces emissions by 239.4 kg vs. PET and 200.8 kg vs. PP. From an economic point of view, this will save a lot of money on various taxes. For standard plastic, taxes vary, but in the general case they are equal to our product. The significant difference compared to the CO2 emitted will reduce their costs by at least half.
Our packaging solutions are made from PLA derived from corn starch, sourced in compliance with the world’s strictest environmental standards. They offer the full performance of plastic film but are compostable, eliminating the need for recycling. Fully compatible with existing industrial packaging machines, they allow for immediate large-scale adoption without changes to production processes or equipment. Our unique formulation enables the production of high-quality, affordable, and durable clear films using standard polymer extruders. A key advantage is our in-house development, testing, and manufacturing, ensuring innovation and quality control. This capability supports rapid and efficient scaling, essential for meeting market demands while maintaining sustainability and affordability.
