2. VIST Labs

• Founding Year: 2020
• Location: USA
• Solution: Modified Atmospheric Packaging

VIST Labs develops modified atmospheric packaging for cannabis decontamination and preservation using its CryoPasteurization technology. The CryoPasteurization eliminates harmful microbes, such as yeast and mold, without using irradiation or chemicals, to preserve essential terpenes and cannabinoids.

VIST Labs’ Aseptic Modified Atmosphere Packaging System (AMAPS) further protects cannabis by creating a low-oxygen environment that prevents microbial growth and extends shelf life. This approach allows growers to maintain product quality, meet regulatory standards, and reduce health risks to consumers.

3. GoodSeal Packaging

• Founding Year: 2019
• Location: Egypt
• Solution: Aseptic Bags

GoodSeal Packaging designs aseptic bags and bag-in-box (BIB) packaging solutions for the storage and transportation of liquids across various industries. Its products, the SealPro Ultrasonic Sealer and the PackMaster High-Speed Sealer use FDA-certified resins and sterilization processes like gamma irradiation to maintain product quality, barrier integrity, and extended shelf life.

The startup customizes its packaging solutions to offer a wide range of capacities, with options for opaque, transparent, or metalized film. These packaging solutions are suitable for storing and transporting concentrates, water, dairy, wine, and beverages to ensure safety and freshness.

4. Polyhexidine

• Founding Year: 2020
• Location: USA
• Solution: Biocidal Plastics

Polyhexidine develops biocidal plastics by integrating chlorhexidine into polyolefin resins to create materials that actively destroy bacteria, viruses, and fungi without leaching or washing out. This technology works by embedding the chlorhexidine molecules within the plastic, disrupting the cell walls of harmful microbes.

Biocidal plastic’s broad-spectrum antimicrobial action reduces contamination in various applications such as food packaging, medical textiles, and air filtration. It enhances hygiene, extends product lifespan, and minimizes waste, which makes it a safer, and sustainable material for packaging while reducing environmental impact.

5. Cavitus

• Founding Year: 2022
• Location: Switzerland
• Solution: Ultrasonic Foam Control Systems

Cavitus develops ultrasonic foam control systems to improve the efficiency of canning and bottling processes. Its Aseptic air-cooled defoaming unit AFCS‑1, is packaged in an aseptic tube to maintain hygiene and allows for efficient foam control in beverage filling processes. Its patented sonotrode generates ultrasonic waves that collapse foam bubbles by disrupting its surface tension.

It requires a cooling air connection and ensures compact installation without compromising performance. This system integrates into existing, or new production lines without disrupting current setups. Cavitus maintains beverage quality and minimizes overfills to improve manufacturers’ yield and lower operational costs for foam management.

6. Neuster Health

• Founding Year: 2020
• Location: USA
• Solution: Medical Sterilized Packaging

Neuster Health develops medical sterilization packaging solutions for the healthcare industry. The startup provides a range of products, including heat-scalable sterilization EtO pouches, customized Tyvek lids, and Tyvek pouches, which ensure the sterility of medical devices.

Neuster Health’s packaging solutions utilize materials that conform to ISO 11607 standards and are compatible with sterilization methods like ethylene oxide and gamma radiation. It also provides self-seal pouches that eliminate the need for heat-sealing machines.

The startup offers customizable packaging to meet specific healthcare needs to ensure safe and effective device handling. Neuster Health delivers high-quality, tailored sterilization packaging, enhancing hygiene and compliance in medical environments.
