Research publication within REDYSIGN explores enzymatic innovation to enhance water resistance in fibre-based packaging

REDYSIGN continues to strengthen its scientific foundations with the publication of a new peer-reviewed article in the journal Cleaner Engineering and Technology. A new scientific publication developed within the REDYSIGN project investigates innovative enzymatic approaches to enhance moisture resistance in fibre-based materials, an important step towards advancing recyclable-by-design packaging solutions. The article, entitled “Thermo-pressed specimens […]
Efficient sorting of contaminated fiber-based packaging with smart identification markers

Fibre-based packaging (FBP) — such as trays, cartons or takeaway containers — offers a sustainable alternative to plastic. However, when these materials are contaminated with organic residues like blood, oils or fats — a common situation in food applications — their recyclability is severely limited. Most of this packaging ends up being landfilled or incinerated, […]
