Objective
The packaging industry is responsible of around 60% of post-consumer SUP wastes and most likely to become litter in natural environments. While factors such as fast consumption patterns, safety concerns or compact size, hinder effective packaging waste recycling, the need for safe alternative biodegradable solutions is mandatory.
E-OILÉ will address safe and sustainable biodegradable packaging solutions close to the market by: a) demonstrating at TRL 7 cost effective production of biodegradable materials based on novel biopolyesters and polysaccharides, engineered to enhance barrier and mechanical performance, to replace Polyolefin materials (PP and PE) and PET in monodose packaging solutions ecodesigned as biodegradable monomaterial structures or combination with coating technologies and following the SSbD framework ; b) implementing a circular business model, food and cosmetic products, through 4 Uses Cases (UC): Olive oil- UC1; oily sauces- UC2; Body oil- UC3 and Oil serum- UC4); c) validating the packaging performance, shelf life, safety and sustainability along the whole supply chain (from material producers to end users) and demonstrating complete biodegradability following relevant standards and in environmentally relevant conditions and, therefore, sustainable End-of-Life (EoL) pathways for the new packaging solutions in combination with the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advanced modelling mechanisms for digitally-assisted accurate prediction of degradation processes. The consortium is integrated by 15 partners of the whole supply chain: large companies, SMEs and Start-up as materials producers (2) to the end-users of food and cosmetic sectors (2) through the packaging producers (3). Partnership will also involve supporting RTOs and other non-profit organizations with expertise in disciplines such as compounding, SSbD, biodegradation testing, packaging and product validation, exploitation, SSH for consumer engagement and digital technologies
