Business Wire
Eagle Beverage, a leading manufacturer of straws made from
resins utilizing Nodax® brand polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), has
announced the opening of its first PHA Injection Molding
manufacturing plant. This groundbreaking facility marks a
significant milestone in the company's mission to revolutionize the
single-use cutlery industry with sustainable alternatives.
Eagle Beverage is proud to announce the successful
commercialization of Danimer Scientifc’s proprietary resins made
from Nodax PHA to manufacture single-use forks, knives, and spoons.
Eagle Beverage has already begun shipping these innovative products
to customers, demonstrating the immediate market readiness of its
PHA-based cutlery lines.
"We're thrilled to bring Nodax PHA-based cutlery to the market
at scale," said Aisha Kabani, Executive Vice President of Eagle
Beverage. "Our new state-of-the-art manufacturing plant allows us
to meet the growing demand for sustainable PHA-based single-use
utensils while maintaining the quality and performance our
customers expect."
Eagle Beverage was one of the first converters of PHA-based
straws in the world using Danimer Scientific’s resins. They
successfully commercialized Starbucks PHA-based straws in North
America using the novel Nodax PHA-based resins produced by Danimer
Scientific. PHA is a home, industrial and marine compostable
material, offering a sustainable solution to the environmental
challenges posed by traditional single-use plastics.
Stephen Croskrey, CEO of Danimer Scientific said, “We are very
proud to be a part of the sustainable commitment Eagle Beverage has
made to bring PHA-based home compostable cutlery to the market.
Eagle Beverage has made a significant investment with new world
class equipment to make PHA-based cutlery on a commercial scale.
Our long-standing partnership began with the launch of marine and
home compostable PHA-based straws. We are now very excited to help
Eagle Beverage bring home compostable cutlery to the
marketplace.”
With the opening of this new facility, Eagle Beverage is poised
to significantly increase its production capacity to meet the
growing demands for home compostable cutlery. Eagle Beverage has
been awarded a share of the PHA-based cutlery business from one of
the world’s largest quick-service restaurants. The company is
prepared to ramp up operations to meet the surging demand for
eco-friendly cutlery alternatives.
By utilizing Danimer Scientific’s formulated resins containing
Nodax, Eagle Beverage is taking a significant step toward reducing
plastic waste and promoting a more circular economy.
