Students deliver project at Houses of Parliament

Year 11 Liverpool Life Sciences UTC students Wed, Lara and Dylan, travelled to London to present their Unilever Inspire and Big Bang Competition project at the Houses of Parliament.

The group, who have named their company BG bubble have designed a new shampoo for Unilever that reduces waste by packaging the shampoo in sodium alginate capsules that can be easily burst to release the shampoo and then completely dissolve in water. This means the correct amount of shampoo required can be contained in a single bead so that people don’t end up using too much. The shampoo balls are also supplied in a bamboo container to further reduce plastic waste.
