What if waste wasn’t just waste? What if farming could be both humane and sustainable? Evergreen Labs believes in a world where challenges become opportunities. This month, we are thrilled to feature Evergreen Labs, an inspiring organization turning bold ideas into real solutions for the planet, people, and animals. With a focus on innovation and community, they’re proving that a better future is possible, and within reach.
Who is Evergreen Labs?
Evergreen Labs, established in 2016, is a mission-driven company, headquartered in Singapore, with operational offices in Vietnam and the Philippines. Dedicated to solving some of the world’s most pressing environmental and social challenges, Evergreen Labs transforms environmental challenges into scalable, circular economy solutions.
Their work is rooted in developing innovative, community-focused ventures and solutions that emphasize inclusivity, sustainability, and long-term impact. By partnering with corporations, governments, and non-profits, they create systemic change, building a brighter future where people, animals, and the planet thrive in harmony.
What is Evergreen Labs doing?
Evergreen Labs is more than just a company; they are a catalyst for change. With a focus on transforming waste into valuable resources, empowering smallholder farmers, and creating scalable models, their mission is both ambitious and impactful. Combining localized insights with global expertise, Evergreen Labs brings resilience to communities and builds sustainable systems that stand the test of time.
Key initiatives include:
HealthyFarm: Promoting humane animal farming by empowering farmers, achieving Certified Humane certifications, and educating consumers about sustainable practices.
ReForm Plastic: Tackling the growing issue of low-value plastic waste by converting it into durable, high-value products through innovative, localized recycling technologies.
Glassia Water: Revolutionizing how people consume water by reducing single-use plastic waste with refill and reuse systems, offering purified water in sustainable, circular models.
HealthyFarm was created in 2017 as a social business to empower local farmers with sustainable growing practices while connecting them to well-established markets. This initiative built a network of over 300 smallholder farmers and formed partnerships with major corporations. In response to the challenges brought by COVID-19, HealthyFarm pivoted to focus on animal welfare, collaborating with World Animal Protection to extend their expertise to farmed animals. Together, they are driving transformational change in animal farming practices.
