The RefuCoat project was presented at the BBI Stakeholder Forum 2017 on December 6-7th in Brussels.
RefuCoat is an EU-funded project aiming to develop fully-recyclable food packaging with enhanced gas barrier properties and new functionalities using high performance coatings. Active coatings will be used in films and trays as an alternative to current metallised and modified atmospheric packaging (MAP) to avoid the use of non-renewable materials in packaging that currently leads to complex and expensive recycling steps.
