Poultry farming industry issue mind map (biomimicry)
Sustainable packaging alternative materials
Bamboo grass packaging
Takes longer time to biodegrade
Is durable and versatile
The grass regenerates quickly
Mycelium/mushroom packaging
Cannot be manufactured and takes long time to grow
Shock absorbant and lightweight
Flame resistant and insulated
Seaweed packaging
Edible and dissolves effortlessly in water
Extremely costly
Is flexible and malleable
Reused sugar cane bagasse
Is sturdy and breathable
Biodegrades in 15-30 days and is a reused material
Can resist hot temperatures
Structural integrity alternatives (Bee honeycomb for packaging)
Can support massive vertical stress without buckling
Has the smallest perimeter, but highest area out of all other shapes allowing maximization of space
Because of the equal. 120° angles, honeycombs can resist damage from multiple sides
Status quo of packaging
Molded paper pulps
Lose structural integrity when in a humid environment
It sheds microscopic fibres onto the eggs which are harmful to us
Are less durable, as its prone to breaking and bending extremely easily
Plastic
Is not biodegradable and is rarely recycled because it uses a lot of energy and resources
No shock absorption, for example, if dropped, all the force from the drop transfers to the egg
