Viktiga resultat som projektet gav
The purpose of the project has been to test our new food-safe water-based coatings on our paper products to maximise performance, commercialise and replacement of PE coatings in the industry. We have been able to successfully apply the waterbased coating to our paper wrappers on some of our solutions and able to fully eliminate plastic from paper packaging while enusring a good insulation to humidity and liquids, as well as ensuring the packaging is recyclable.
Långsiktiga effekter som förväntas
Considering the success of our testings, we are now in a position where we have commercialized our offering, however, there are still cheaper plastic-based offerings in the market, Our next focus is to maximize our production capacity and make our Plastic free production more competitive in the market over the next 12 months to allow food packaging businesses to replace their current BOPP wraps with our plastic-free paper wraps.
Upplägg och genomförande
With increasing rate of raw materials across the indusry and especially paper prices, it has become more difficult to implement our technology due to its increasing overhead costs for businesses. With large scale mass production, we are confident that we can convert many clients to use our technology in large scale and benefit from a plastic free solution that support the environment as is in line with the objectives of becomeing more sustainble. Todays customers are ever more consious of the climate and our solution paves the path for the food industry to reach their plastic free goals.
