Products

edit

Great Wrap sells compostable cling wrap and pallet wrap made from compostable biopolymers and plant-based oils.[4] The wrap is certified compostable, meaning it will break down in a compost pile leaving no microplastics behind.[5] Great wrap is manufactured at the company's factory in Melbourne, Australia [6] and has the goal to become a fully circular business, with 100% of manufacturing completed in-house.
