Project Overview

WildBlue Solutions proposes to help introduce Biotic Labs’ (Biotic) innovative, sustainable, environmentally friendly PHBV polymer pellets for the development of Ocean Blue Horticulture Pots. WildBlue will be working in collaboration with Bloem Living  to produce 1,500 x 4” fully biodegradable horticulture pots that mimic hard plastic pots currently available in the horticulture industry Biotic's PHBV polymers provide a unique plastic alternative in that they are a zero-waste, fully biodegradable polymer that can be created without the environmental impact of harmful extraction methods or the creation of microplastics. WildBlue Solutions will be testing pots for their longevity in both a commercial setting and with home gardeners.
