VineCycle addresses the growing problem of plastic pollution by transforming agricultural waste, specifically grapevine canes, into a biodegradable, plastic-like material. This innovative process provides a sustainable alternative to conventional plastics for various industries, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and minimizing environmental impact. The startup would partner with vineyards to collect their annual cane trimmings, process them using a proprietary method to extract and convert the cellulose into a versatile biopolymer, and then supply this material as pellets or sheets to manufacturers.
