PHBOTTLE

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.
