Livrables

Documents, reports (19)

First version of the open source model as a prediction tool for design of simple multilayer films

Result from task 144 Model will simulate migrations of organic molecules through multilayers based on actual use conditions characterization of barrier properties to organic contaminants degradation products of polymers and additives solvents tool enabling design of simple multilayer films containing a limited number of layers 4

Circularity Assessment of CIMPA multilayer packaging solutions

LCA performed on recycling of 2 ML packaging (one simple, one complex).Application of best suited circularity indicators from a range of existing ones: Material Circularity Index (MCI)1 from Ellen MacArthur Foundation, mineral and fossil resource depletion, Cumulative Exergy Demand, thermo-economic indicator by Helmholtz. The full LCA and LCC (with data and results associated) will be included in this deliverable.

final report on legislative and pre-normative actions including policy brief

Final result from task 7.1:- recommendations for legislative/regulations update/revisions and update or new standards to achieve ML films circularity- recommendations will be conveyed through policy briefs (2-3 pages) aimed at decision/policy makers and technical committees

Communication Plan

Plan presenting the major stakeholders events actions identified for the project communication during the project as well as the means of communication design motion video social medias and targeted KPIs This plan will be updated in the periodic reports

Second version of the open source model as a tool to predict design of circular multilayer films

As a final result from task 1.4.4, the open source model enables design of circular multilayer films:- capacity to simulate migration/barrier properties of recycled multilayer films- capacity to be used as a design tool for functional barrier designs of films containing a large number of layers

CIMPA's circular-driven business models for multilayer packaging solutions

Circularity driven Business models will be proposed based on: •the financial life cycle analysis with the identification of the value chain and a description of all stakeholders involved in the value chain and their individual interest to create business•relevant data for markets analysis •comparison of the recyclability and re-processing of multilayers based on the CIMPA technology vs. current situation •the circularity assessment data from T6.4•a set of recommendations from consumers and stakeholders (including distributors, retailers, public authorities) established in T1.3.
