PlantFusion

Plant Fusion veterans of the natural products industry in the US. They create authentic, 100% plant-based, nutrient-dense, allergen-free products that are better for you and for the world. Having struggled for some time to find interesting, sustainable packaging options, they came to Grounded looking for a high-barrier compostable (ideally home compostable) pouch for their protein powders. The pouches needed to work on their filling lines and maintain product integrity for an extended period. The pouches also needed to be fully certified to US standards in order to proof authenticity and gain approval from the major retailers.
