Refining Silk’s Power to Protect More Foods

We’re always working on new ways to have an impact

What if we didn’t have to rely so heavily on packaging to keep our food fresh?

What if we could reduce waste across all types of food?

What if we could transition to more compostable food packaging?

What if we could use less salt and sugar in our food?

Curious how we integrate into your supply chain?
