by | May 16, 2019


According to the Philippine Statistics Authority on agriculture, in 2017 alone the pineapple production figures soared to 2.617M with around 5% comprised of agricultural waste such as pineapple leaves. Pinyapel grabs the opportunity to give these agricultural wastes purpose and value. The initiative also ensures increased livelihood for our farmers.

Pinyapel couldn’t have arrived at a better time where Filipinos are searching for alternative solutions to waste. With this new product, the country could gradually move towards a sustainable, biodegradable, and ecologically conscientious manufacturing.
