Based in Washington, US, Eagle Beverage says it is one of the first manufacturers to convert PHA-based straws globally, including the commercialisation of Starbucks PHA-based straws in North America. 

PHA, a material compostable in home, industrial, and marine environments, offers a sustainable alternative to traditional single-use plastics. 

Danimer Scientific CEO Stephen Croskrey said: “We are very proud to be a part of the sustainable commitment Eagle Beverage has made to bring PHA-based home-compostable cutlery to the market.” 

The company has secured a portion of the PHA-based cutlery business from one of the world’s largest quick-service restaurants and is ready to scale up its operations.  

Eagle Beverage’s use of Danimer Scientific’s formulated resins containing Nodax marks a move towards diminishing plastic waste and fostering a more circular economy.
