Objective The overall concept of NanoBarrier is to develop a new nanotechnology platform based on inorganic-organic hybrid polymers, microfibrillated cellulose, nanocapsules with controlled permeability and additive technology and combine this with resource-efficient processing technologies to realize safe and extended shelf-life and multifunctional biopolymer food packaging solutions. These solutions based on CO2 neutral and renewable resources, should work as an enabling technology for innovative companies to stimulate to further consumption growth of fish and seafood and environmental conscious packaging solutions for meat and dairy products; food sectors of major social, economical and health impact in the European region. The project will also bring forward robust biopolymer formulations, compounding expertise and coating approaches to combine nanoparticle technology with biopolymer formulations. Dedicated demonstrators are planned based on resource-efficient processing technologies, such as blow moulding and film blowing. The demonstrators will be multifunctional barrier films for meat packaging, multifunctional barrier bottles for liquid yoghurt and milk and multifunctional barrier jars for crab packaging. NanoBarrier will include sustainable parameters from the demonstrator design step applying ecodesign methodology to minimize the environmental, social and economic impact from the early development step. An LCA will quantify the impact of the foreseen demonstrators and measures are taken to evaluate safety. The objectives of the project will be achieved by implementing the work organized in four technical work packages (in addition to a coordination work package) where each WP are designed to fulfill one- or several of the specific scientific objectives in the project. The project consortium cover the whole value chain from manufacture and competence of nanoparticle technology to end-use supply and include leading organizations and competences throughout Europ Fields of science agricultural sciencesanimal and dairy sciencedairynatural scienceschemical sciencespolymer sciencesengineering and technologymaterials engineeringcoating and filmsengineering and technologynanotechnologynano-materialsengineering and technologyother engineering and technologiesfood technologyfood packaging Programme(s) FP7-NMP - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Nanosciences, Nanotechnologies, Materials and new Production Technologies Topic(s) NMP.2011.1.1-1 - Smart and multifunctional packaging concepts utilizing nanotechnology Call for proposal FP7-NMP-2011-LARGE-5 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme CP-IP - Large-scale integrating project Coordinator STIFTELSEN SINTEF EU contribution € 1 912 515,07 Address STRINDVEIEN 4 7034 Trondheim Norway See on map Region Norge Trøndelag Trøndelag Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Tove Lillian Hønstad (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Participants (17) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all MAX-PLANCK-GESELLSCHAFT ZUR FORDERUNG DER WISSENSCHAFTEN EV Participation ended Germany EU contribution € 18 829,08 Address HOFGARTENSTRASSE 8 80539 Munchen See on map Region Bayern Oberbayern München, Kreisfreie Stadt Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Stefanie Riedel (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data UNIVERZA V MARIBORU Slovenia EU contribution € 310 277,60 Address SLOMSKOV TRG 15 2000 Maribor See on map Region Slovenija Vzhodna Slovenija Podravska Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Brigita Krsnik Horvat (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data UNIVERSIDADE DE AVEIRO Portugal EU contribution € 521 574,00 Address CAMPUS UNIVERSITÁRIO DE SANTIAGO 3810-193 Aveiro See on map Region Continente Centro (PT) Região de Aveiro Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Fernando Ferreira Batista (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data IDRYMA TECHNOLOGIAS KAI EREVNAS Greece EU contribution € 930 064,67 Address N PLASTIRA STR 100 70013 Irakleio See on map Region Νησιά Αιγαίου Κρήτη Ηράκλειο Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Andreas Plagakis (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data INSTITUTO TECNOLOGICO DEL EMBALAJE, TRANSPORTE Y LOGISTICA Spain EU contribution € 664 659,25 Address CALLE ALBERT EINSTEIN 1 PARQUE TECNOLOGICO DE VALENCIA 46980 Paterna See on map Region Este Comunitat Valenciana Valencia/València Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Carmen Sànchez Reig (Mrs.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data RISE INNVENTIA AB Sweden EU contribution € 828 830,75 Address DROTTNING KRISTINAS VAG 61 114 86 Stockholm See on map Region Östra Sverige Stockholm Stockholms län Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Göran Ström (Prof.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data LOGOPLASTE INNOVATION LAB LDA Portugal EU contribution € 280 907,00 Address ESTRADA DA MALVEIRA ED LOGOPLASTE MATO ROMAO 2750 782 Cascais See on map Region Continente Área Metropolitana de Lisboa Área Metropolitana de Lisboa Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Maria Eugenia Zacarias (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data ARGO SA MANUFACTURE OF PLASTIC PACKAGES Greece EU contribution € 248 649,60 Address CHLM KOROPI VARIS 1KM 19400 KOROPI See on map Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Ioannis Alexiou (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data W.R.
