LOLIWARE is a leading seaweed-based, climate tech company.
Our mission is to advance the planet towards a plastic-free, de-carbonized future with products that are Designed to Disappear™
We exist to combat the massive plastic waste problem with a natural and carbon-negative alternative: seaweed. By using seaweed’s regenerative properties—along with its climate change mitigation and adaptation potential—we can make single-use plastic obsolete once and for all.
Through our Double Carbon Delete Initiative™ (DCDI) we can address the adverse effects of climate change by capturing carbon through our responsible seaweed supply chain and replacing plastic products on a large scale to avoid emissions.
The LOLIWARE straw is just the beginning of what we can make obsolete by harnessing the regenerative and carbon sequestering power of seaweed. If we're able to replace plastic straws with our technology, what we can do next is limitless.
Plastic is over, seaweed is the future. Seaweed is regenerative, fast-growing, and does not require fresh water or fertilizers to mature. For this reason, a seaweed-based product has an environmental advantage over petroleum, corn, canola, or tree-based products as an input. “The LOLIWARE Straw 2.0” has surfaced as a singular and powerful iteration of what’s possible with a targeted application of seaweed material science.
