10 Jun 2024 --- London-based start-up Aeropowder, which creates materials from surplus feathers, has secured a £150,000 (US$190,000) investment from the British Design Fund (BDF). The company will use the financing to support the launch of its thermal packaging product, PluumoPlus. Designed as a replacement for single-use plastics, PluumoPlus is tailored for use in the life sciences industry and cold chain logistics. Traditionally, plastic materials, such as expanded polystyrene, have been relied upon for the storage and movement of temperature-sensitive goods.
