If Nature Made Plastic:
Inside Shellworks' radical new material.
What if plastic wasn't drilled from the ground, but grown by bacteria? In this episode, we speak with Insiya Jafferjee, co-founder and CEO of Shellworks.
She's created a packaging material, Vivomer, that performs like plastic but composts like food — and she's betting she can take on a $600 billion industry with it. Let’s dig into what it really takes to bring and scale a radical new material to market.

PRODUCTION + PARTNERS
Producing Without Destroying is produced by Standard Deviation, in partnership with Makesense and Climate House.
We’ve seen firsthand that entrepreneurs already carry many of the solutions to our ecological crises.
The real barrier isn’t science or technology—it’s belief. We need their stories to rewrite what society sees as possible.
