How People Profit Off Pineapple Scraps | World Wide Waste | Insider Business
In the Philippines, if you're wearing the Barong made with Piña fibers, there's a certain feeling of pride aside from you're wearing the national costume.
It is expensive and high end
@@jonjap8363 some sort of, but it's not.
That is incredible 👏 I am just amazed how much depth their is to God's creation even down to the bugs that eat pineapple and their contribution back to the earth . Circle of life ❤

Just like cotton and jute, even pineapple fibre can one day turn into a low costing yet high-profit clothing. We need to support these wonderful start-ups that can make an elegant change to a rotting disaster.
With coconut, pineapple is a plant that every part of it can use and bring profit.
@@tony98discovery banana too. Every part of that plant can be the utility.

The philippines has made the pineapple fiber to textiles for the barong for centuries, but nobody really sat down and did R&D to make it into other kinds of textiles for bags, clothes and other products. A shame.
In africa we have lots of the pineapple leaves. Just bring the machines and you will have the raw materials
It's really sad that it takes a person outside our culture to appreciate and innovate from what we have been doing for centuries. We could have broken through the world market with that. :(
In the Philippines, Pineapple tusks are made into fibers for traditional Filipino clothing since the 18th century during Spanish colonial times. The chopped Pineapples skins are being utilized as cow feeds in some cattle ranches in Bukidnon, Mindanao. Everything has its usage from these fruits. Del Monte Pineapple Plantation is located in Bukidnon in Mindanao as well Dole Pineapple Plantation.
Did this video tell you that ? The answer is Yes. Since you're a Filipino I know you won't understand my sarcasm so I'll just say have a nice day and ingat.
@@abritabroadinthephilippines , apparently I do not understand your sarcasm but I think your audacity to insinuate & itolerat a minute scrap comment is well understood. Go fly a kite.
Thanks for letting me know that there are pineapple plantation in Bukidnon since I'm planning to move there
@@abritabroadinthephilippinesas a Filipino, I understood your sarcasm. But I also understand that your sarcasm is uncalled for. You are simply being weird and obnoxious over the internet.
Further proof that it's possible to be eco friendly and not wasteful if only people weren't so greedy. Happy to see a lot of start ups like this one trying to use everything we grow and not just throw it away.
I don't think soap for 2 Dollars is cheap , the process seams to be still very inefficient
Don't you think that those exact startups are also greedy? They're profiting off a market that nobody has considering taking advantage of. Furthermore, the manufacturing of products also creates waste and those companies you're praising are no exception. I think you're giving them too much credit and unnecessarily vilifying people you claim are "greedy."
@@sidneychui5601 I also don't think "waste" is the right word.
I mean if pineapple rot they turn to soil don't they ? It is not like they had no use at all....
@@sidneychui5601 I much rather take their waste than FOSSIL FUEL WASTE. ,,,,GREED TO SAVE THE PLANET IS GOOD.
@@sidneychui5601say that again but this time, slowly.
Whenever I ate pineapple, I used the thick skins to mock and clean my countertop and bathroom tubs around the corners. The enzymes broke down dark mold.
Can you explain in detail please
👏👏 she helped the farmers more than our government should help our own.
I just love everything about this video from thier idea to turn waste into eco friendly products and the kind person of lifepack who just let's the other company take the pineapple waste for free.
International business needs more people like you. Thankyou
Amazing! Thank you so much, Dr. Carmen, for creating jobs in my country. And for turning tons of waste to sustainable materials. 😍
All these people with their products are absolutely pure genius! Kudos and more kudos to all these people! I want to buy these products.
It makes me feel actually proud of humanity when ppl like this exist to literally use creative entrepreneurship into value for all involved without hurting a current crop nor having to create space for a whole new crop.
Glad to see innovative people come up with new ways to turn waste products into new useful products. I hope this doesn't go the way of hemp did when the de-cortication machine came out and the paper/tree lobbyists got angry they were infringing on their profits.
when i was working pineapple plantation ,we are fabricating the fiber it being exported to spain for the making paper money
Great to see how waste is used and turned into new products! Amazing example of sustainability🌍🙌🏼
Are their ships run off nuclear power?
We grow organic pineapple in Brazil and we are looking forward to create nem organic products from pineapple as well. That's a fantastic fruit!
Pineapples are very rich in acidity. So, When fermentation releases those acids from pineapples it kills microorganisms. We know that many microorganisms can't survive in acid. Let's support wonderful ideas.
So, how are you supporting it? Just talking?
@@thebell313 I have donated 50 dollars to the pineapple fibre company. As a very young freelancer, I can only afford to give 50 dollars to them. Let's speak magnific ideas.
This is what human ingenuity is all about. Very cool to see this.
Thanks to Business insider for this wonderful video. It feels good to know that there are companies who invest in eco-friendly products and then waste into gold.
Wow! I love these innovative pineapple products. Environment friendly. We should all try to be supportive of these eco-friendly endeavours. 😊
Everything on this earth is usable!!!. Humankind just needs to be more involved, in the realization ,of how it gets accomplished .
It is always wonderful to see the many benefits and uses of agricultural products. Excellent video. May the various manufacturers keep up the good work and find even more uses for these plants.
Loved the idea of using pineapple leaves for extracting fibre. This can be implemented in Meghalaya, India too as the region produces a lot of pineapple each year. Even Banana trunks can be used to extract fibre I guess.
it's great to see scraps being used for so much.. the world such use this as an example
We use the peeling off the fruit, together with molasses, and spices to make pineapple vinegar, a main ingredient in "curtido", - Salvadoran sauerkraut -.
It's a huge hit in Thailand. There are many formula. One of them is here in this vid. Many came from grandma who believe it's the right way.
Wow! These are wonders of ideas and companies that gonna really make a magnificent change to this rotting pineapple disaster. Let's support them for a better Earth.
Pineapples fiber -Philippine fiber..😮❤wow. I hope.. we can manufacture here in the Philippines. More jobs
We already have husi, which is fiber extracted from pineapple, banana or abaca. Filipinos have been producing that for centuries.
@@kzm-cb5mrthe fiber made in this video is somewhat different. They can make leather. The thread is mass produced unlike the painstaking procedure in the Phil.
The last gentleman that makes the soaps and cleaners is an absolute angel. Used the pineapples to help his wife and still help others too 🙏🏾❤
In the late 1700s and early 1800s pineapples were such an expensive luxury that middle class individuals would rent them to make their dinner party seem more extravagant. The cost was equivalent to $8,000 today.
I love the eco plate from pineapple !!!!!! i hope this would be a change all over the world
praise that scientist/Buddhist nun who not only found the recipe for biodegradable detergent but shared it freely with everyone. a true eco-warrior!
also the founder is such a wife guy its kinda adorable. he started an entire company to help his wife's condition. there are good men out there!!!
@@justin__roderick How much fuel did it take to transport this material?
Yes!! This is the type of creativity we need!! Thank you!!
Good to see agricultural waste reused. I spent my entire career in recycling and love seeing innovative uses.
Those seed plates are an absolute brilliant idea!
I hope they can expand the manufacturing in philippines. So we can have local product grow.
A plate that serves; then becomes a strawberry 🍓 container for seed's? Where do I find them and why haven't I heard of this amazing idea before now!? Well done to ALL who are involved in this amazing idea 💡👍😊
I just hope that the people who are doing the hard work is getting a fair wage and not being used to promote the people who are already rich and wanting MORE!.
Im glad they acknowledge the 5% gap. Hearing they use petroleum kinda me grimace lol anyway, the company has positively impacted my municipality thru its partnership with a local cooperative. In fact i recognize some of the places in pinatex's stock vids. Hope they can also find a way to make production sustainable. To produce the final product, the materials need to hop among 3 countries at least so i guess that's also something they need to work on. But they're on the right track
Business insider, thanks for all the inspiration! Love your reports.
The Philippines been using pineapple fiber for centuries in our traditional clothing..
Reminds me of William Randolph Hearst and the hemp industry. Hopefully no one decides to stop another renewable resource. Very interesting.
Interesante como cada año descubrimos diferentes maneras de parar la contaminación. Solo queda apoyar estos proyectos 😊
Thank you all. These are the wonderful problem solutions that our World needs. May your wonderful development continue on to many more once considered a waist to something we all can use.
India's pineapple capital is vazhakulam. We should use this technology, and make different product from pineapple. Thanks business insider ❤
Do you think if you have capital, you can start this?
Why not. If we got technologies. Its not a rocket science
They did say the woman who came up with the process on making the enzyme cleaner gave up the process freely to anyone who wants to make it.
While growing up, waste was not a part of my grandfather's vocabulary, nor in his dictionary. For example, the coconut was used in it's entirety. The meat, the trash for the chickens. the shell as utensils for the kitchen or for use in the fields, then the shell was turned to ashes for the plants. The coconut worms from the rotting tree, then the tree itself was used to boil the cane juice for sugar, then the ashes was buried as compost. Nothing to throw away. The pineapple was washed, bottled and the skin was crushed , lime, sugar, and ginger were added to make a delicious drink, for sale. The residue was buried deep to nurture the soil
Thank you Dr. Carmen. You are amazing.
I am very impressed. Weldone. Beautiful end products. Keep up the good work.
Pineapple scraps and fibers should not be wasted , yet used as a resource for goods. Great job on using the fibers to make things.
This is so wonderful. I think there is more good done in the world than the typical narrative most mainstream media tells us for viewership through their sensational headlines and doomsday narrative. This innovation to better humanity and the ecology is what we need to consume more.
SO AMAZING!!!!!‼️‼️
Awesome creativity and ingenuity!
Excited to see the development of enzyme based cleaners like this. For those of us with worm based septic systems we are really limited to the cleaning products that we can use - still have to be careful with a I'd levels though! Our worms don't like pickles lol.
Good use of scrap of various waste materials....
All these peoples are pioneers of nature...🌷🌷🙏🏻🙏🏻
The humble pineapple is not so humble. So many uses! 😎
Fabulous invention from plate to plant to textile stunning
The very same goes for super grass BAMBOO! You can make 1000’s of items out of it and it grows very fast. Good stuff people!👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👍👍
Brilliant! Well done, lady!
Thank you for making a difference in the world.
Amazing video showing examples to make our planet a better place to live!
This is sensational! All power to you for you efforts!
This has been so amazing to watch
*This exemplifies human innovation. It's really cool to witness*
Insider business doing best reports,
what a wonderful video!
You will never get away completely from petroleum and other industrial products. It is the percentage and how it is processed that counts. Just because there is petrol involved is not necessarily bad. I like what they are doing.
This is amazing bravo
I appreciate content like this.
In mindanao Philippines Del monte and Dole plantations occupies the big part of the island, But kalibo , Aklan famous for the pina cloth ,But now other countries are manufacturing pina cloth in mass quantities
So happy to learn about these new products. There is hope for mother earth!
Bravo to this woman. They should give her a monetary award to expand.
Why? she stole an idea and put a patent on it
Are the links for the plates and detergent anywhere in the description? This are amazing!
Wow. Totally sustainable with multiple uses and employment.
The reason why I love research so much.
Great people are so smart more power to them
I really like the idea of using every part of a plant, and not throwing things into landfill.
This is so cool! Love this!
Good stuff. This is how you make a difference.
FUWA thanks Insider Business for sharing the brand's story🥰🥰🥰
You need more exposure! I'm in HCMC and I haven't seen your products.
@@Dayvit78 in HCM we have shop and office, you message me, I will assist you
@@Dayvit78 Which district are you in Ho Chi Minh City, I will support you to visit
Took awhile but so much innovation the past few years
Smart woman!! Thank you!!
I love it,everytime i watch a video like this i just feel sooo happy
Very impressed really looking at fabrics made from pineapple then the scraps being made into recyclable paper that could turn into seeds that plant itself. This is what we need in the green enterprises.
Its not only pineapple that can be used to make a fiber for clothing. Even a banana stalks can also be used to make a fiber, that what I heard back in the Philippines. So someone need to fine out by using those garbage and change it into a by product.
I'm just curious, who is this 'someone'?🤔
Que bendición ver algo así gracias por crear un video de cómo trabajan esta fibra y la convierten en telas útiles y orgánicas que no dañan nuestro mundo 🙏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Good to see these developing areas embrace business and the entrepreneurial spirit. Coupled with capitalism they will be able to pull themselves out of poverty. Notwithstanding the niche aspect of these products, the petrochemical industry is fully developing low temperature microbes able to break down all types of plastics which will allow the material to be reused. Life is good!
Piña, from an embroidered formal Filipino mens shirt to eco friendly disposable plates. 😊😊😊
That Spanish lady should also be made aware of the Abaca plant, a species of banana that's been use to make the Manila envelope, ropes, nets, and sacks etc. Another one worth exploring too is the coconut tree.
I feel so happy seeing this!
Thank you madam Carmen❤
Very good. A new cleaning product that is eco friendly. Awesome
This gives me hope.
Excellent. Supporting these start-ups is a must
Truly amazing.
This is an amazing invention. So much waste reduced. Those plates! Amazing
How interesting!!
finally an eco friendly idea that makes sense love it
here in the Philippines, we use them to make our barongs.
In Sweden (and probably other Nordic countries) we have used pine needles to make detergent/soap (såpa) for centuries. Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪.
Que maravilla de empresaria innovadora. El video es muy interesante.
Really great!
I hope you get to see one soon!!! I just saw the first one in mg garden a week or 2 ago
One thing I wonder is how much the people get paid since they don't mention that. They just mention her giving them jobs which doesn't always make it better if they're really underpaid
