Packaging Made to Disappear, with Julia Bialetska of S.Lab

Another ClimateTech Podcast

Julia Bialetska is the founder of S.Lab, a Ukrainian company creating sustainable packaging solutions from agricultural waste.

In this episode we talked about:

🌱 How S.Lab transforms agricultural waste into packaging that can be used in food, pharmaceuticals, electronics, furniture and fashion

📊 The impact of EU regulations requiring all packaging to be recyclable or reusable by 2030, and why that means companies are rushing to find sustainable alternatives

⚙️ The parallels between today's sustainable materials evolution and the plastic revolution of the last century

🇺🇦 The resilience of Ukrainian startups operating during wartime and the growing recognition they're receiving globally

💰 S. Lab’s impressive pipeline worth approximately 20 million euros in monthly revenue and their current fundraising round of 2.5 million euros
