W-Cycle has received a new investment from Melhoramentos to strengthen their partnership which promotes plastic-free, compostable food containers. The move follows a US$3.4 million partnership deal signed last November that aims to introduce compostable food packaging in Latin America. W-Cycle is an Israel-based compostable food packaging manufacturer that aims to reduce the amount of single-use plastic. At the same time, Melhoramento is a Brazilian conglomerate with activities spanning packaging manufacturing, publishing, renewable forestry, and real estate.
