FreshNet is an innovative and sustainable packaging solution that transforms two problems into a solution. In the Dominican Republic, over a million pounds of fruit rot each year due to extreme heat, while invasive Sargassum algae overwhelms the coastline a problem the government invested over $6 million to tackle in 2024. FreshNet uses sargassum-based bioplastic to naturally preserve fruits and vegetables: the outer shield protects produce, while the inner layer absorbs water and cools through natural evaporation. With just a 30-second soak, FreshNet keeps fruit fresh, reduces food waste, protects coastlines, and reshapes sustainability. Two crises. One solution. FreshNet.
