Making Bioplastic from Orange Peel - REMIX EL BARRIO
Squeeze The Orange is a project by Susana Jurado, Elisenda Jaquemot and Nuria Bonet, created in response to the open call, Remix el Barrio, by SISCODE - El Barri Circular, to reimagine what is possible to make with locally produced food waste. Susana, Elisenda and Nuria used orange peel to create a new bioplastic textile which could be used in a similar application to leather. This recipe is easy to follow and with the right ingredients and equipment can be done in your home kitchen!
