About Azolife
A small workshop with a big idea.
We semi-manufacture plant-based bioplastic bags in Tagum City, and sell them at prices small stores can actually afford.
Our story
Why we started.
Tagum City is moving away from single-use plastic, and more shoppers want greener packaging. But the few trusted alternatives cost more than most small stores can pass on, or they only sell in bulk.
Most bioplastics also rely entirely on food crops like corn, cassava and potato. Our plant-based bioplastic uses less cassava, so our everyday handle bags lean less on the crops people eat.
Azolife started in 2026 through the ADDVentures Innovation Center at Ateneo de Davao University, led by founder Kuiper Von Powell H. Leybag. We semi-manufacture our bags in our own workshop in Apokon, Tagum City, and keep our minimum order at 20 pieces so any store can make the switch.
