PHBOTTLE
New sustainable, functional and competitive PHB material based on fruit waste products, achieving advanced solutions for packaging and other applications
Objectives
The aim of the PHBOTTLE project is to develop a new BOTTLE (body, cap & sleeve) from a biodegradable material, in this case, PHB, which will be obtained by the fermentation of wastewater from juice processing industries (renewable biogenic resource).
Description
This new, competitively priced bottle will be used for juice packaging, although other applications will also be studied (non-food packaging applications, such as cosmetics, and non-packaging applications), thus optimising eco- and energy efficiency in the material production and processing industry.
