Beeswax wrap is beginning to be a popular solution in light of the problem of waste from plastic packaging. BeeConscious is a Thai company that has ventured into this category of the industry with its SuperBee Wraps -- a product which has been nominated for a Dezeen award.
The beeswax wrap is strengthened by added coconut oil and golden tree resin that will help it to "stick to the food." Moreover, the material is antibacterial, adding yet another beneficial layer to BeeConscious' creation.
The products are fully reusable and have a lifespan of up to two years. Their performance has been vigorously tested and it has been determined that the "beeswax allows your food to breathe, like the skin of a fruit does."
