David Hughes' firm, Happy Dolphin in Wrexham, makes carrier bags and other items using calcium carbonate - the same material found in eggshells.
And a biotech firm on Anglesey wants to develop seaweed into food packaging.
"We are aiming to turn the tide of plastic pollution," it said.
It is estimated that almost 13 million tonnes of plastic enter our oceans every year.
And the average "bag for life" reusable carrier bag can endure for hundreds of years, with 1.5 billion of them being sold annually.
Mr Hughes said although Wales has one of the best recycling rates in the world, the recycle-and-reuse model was "outdated".
"We want the Welsh government to see there is a new generation of compostable products that don't have the downside of the first generation that didn't work very well," he said.
"This new material can make all the difference."
Created by Swedish packaging scientist Ake Rosen, who formerly worked at Tetra Pak in Wrexham, the packaging material using calcium carbonate breaks down naturally in the environment.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson told children at a COP26 event last week that plastic use had to be reduced as cutting down the use of recycling plastic materials was "not the answer".
