 Juna2020
Juna is a biodegradable disposable tableware made of SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast) using patented technology. My goal was to create the most eco-friendly disposable tableware, so then I chose SCOBY as a material.
Juna can be dried even using daylight without special drying outfits. It can be used for both cold and hot food, since it’s thermal-resistant. While producing kombucha drink, it grows in layers and the old ones are usually thrown away. I found out that these old layers can be used to produce Juna.
