In 2017, Gergana Stancheva, a graphic designer and illustrator, and photographer and prepress manager Angela Ivanova were both strongly linked to the printing industry through their jobs.
Both passionate eco-activists volunteering for different causes, the two close friends couldn't help but notice the massive amounts of thin plastic film used for laminating print materials and cardboard packaging to preserve the material and enhance their look.
In 2018, the two visionaries teamed up with Associate Professor Dr. Philip Ublekov, an expert in biopolymers and polymer co-extrusion at the Bulgarian Academy of Science, and founded LAM’ON OOD with the aim of developing a product that could easily replace the current petroleum-based plastic solutions, enhance safety for human health and the environment, and could be recycled or composted.
