Cenocell

Cenocell is a special type of material made from plant-based wastes and it is considered eco-friendly. Do you know how sometimes we throw away leftover food, leaves or grass and it gets wasted? Well, with cenocell, we can use those things to make something new and useful.

To make cenocell, we start by collecting all of these plant-based wastes and crushing them into tiny pieces. We then add special chemicals and water to these pieces, which helps to break down the material and fiber. This mixture is then put into a special machine that uses heat and pressure to turn it into a thick, moldable material.

Once the cenocell material is made, it can be used in lots of different ways! It can be molded into shapes for things like tableware, cutlery and even toys. It helps in reducing plastic waste and recycling as it is biodegradable and can decompose naturally without harming the environment. Wow, this means that instead of throwing away all of that plant-based waste, we can use it to make something new and help take care of our planet too!
