At SnackTime , we tell stories at the intersection of food, science, art and community. With Sway‘s breakthrough technology, we were able to do that in such a fun and meaningful way...

1. FOOD: Sway's inventive plastic alternative made of seaweed-derived materials is set to replace a variety of plastic packaging, ensuring the reduction of micro-plastics in our food, waterways, clothes and more.

2. SCIENCE: "For the first time, ubiquitous plastic packaging can be replaced with seaweed-derived materials. With Sway's new TPSea™ resin as its base, TPSea Flex™ film plugs into globally scaled plastic manufacturing and offers the technical performance brands require.

After use, TPSea Flex™ decomposes naturally in home, backyard, and industrial compost environments – helping to enable true biological circularity from sea to soil 

3. ART: After winning the Tom Ford Innovation prize last year, Sway is set to replace plastics in packaging for national retailers like J.Crew and Burton. Not to mention, their founder Julia Marsh is a wildly talented designer and literal, living, breathing work of art : )

4. COMMUNITY: The Sway team has dedicated their lives to changing the world for the better.
