Eco-Pack: Banana Fiber Edition
From Fruit Bowl to Packaging Gold: Is Banana Pseudo Stem the Next Game-Changing Material?
Abstract
I never thought banana pant, that I see everyday had so
much wonder in it. I started by looking into the various layers
on the trunk of the plant. Each layer has its on beauty.
The project is a journey through exploration of the banana
plant parts to understand it various structures better.
Through this understanding the material which is thrown out
as a waste material after banana harvest is explored to put
to better use.
My project in particular focuses on exploring the shock
property of banana pseudo stem structures and
in various forms
The document also mention how it could be a sustainable
replacement for one time use plastic bubble wrap paper
and provide extra monitory benefits to local banana farmers,
could be an addition to the Banana fiber craft clusters and
also provide employment opportunities through
and private initiatives,
