Background
Our meat consumption is going to go down. One implication of that is a drop in demand for animal feed, which in turn leaves industry with an amount of waste material that exceeds market demand.
Materials in a new light
Jonas Lewis Junkel has taken on this challenge by developing an alternative biomaterial based on waste from the production of beer and rapeseed oil, among other products. The new material consists mainly of rapeseed cake, mash, water, earth pigments and a compostable binder that can be used for a variety of purposes, including unique lampshades.
