Harnessing Seaweed
to Replace Plastic
B'ZEOS is a green-tech company that develops novel bio-based packaging solutions. We believe in the power of biotechnology in solving the plastic waste challenge and want to bring about meaningful and lasting change to our environment. Our regenerative materials replace the need for single-use plastic.
Our story
B'ZEOS was founded when the opportunity to use seaweed to tackle the plastic challenge was noticed.
Our journey started when Innovation Norway granted a fund to develop our first product, an edible straw. Having understood the potential of a specific solution, we knew the application could be even broader, which marked our decision to pivot to developing flexible packaging solutions. Since then we have started two collaboration periods with Nestlé and have been granted our first EU grant, PlastiSea.
