The Swedish company Saveggy, based in Lund, has developed an edible, plant-based coating for fruits and vegetables. Their first product, targeting cucumbers, extends shelf life and eliminates the need for plastic packaging. The coating is made from rapeseed and oat oil and is free from additives and allergens.
Testfakta's latest laboratory test examined sanitary pads available on the Swedish market, including an analysis of renewable material content. The results show that the proportion of carbon from renewable sources varies between 29% and 88% across the products.
Energy efficiency is a major global challenge. Vast amounts of energy are spent on heating and cooling buildings globally. Better insulation means lower energy demand, saving money, and reducing the need for fossil fuels.
