That has regulators forcing brands to undertake expensive process overhauls. But major brands like Planters Peanuts are turning to Midori Bio for a better solution.

Midori’s proprietary manufacturing additive lets plastic decompose 64X faster. Even better, it’s immediately compatible with manufacturers current processes. 

Currently in talks with four more major brands, there’s a $250M revenue opportunity waiting for Midori in this industry alone. But food’s only part of the equation. 380M+ tons of plastic are manufactured annually across industries. Global brands like HEAD/Penn Tennis have already joined Planters.
