Packaging is necessary for:<br />
» protection during transport and storage<br />
» prevention of product losses<br />
» increasing shelf life<br />
» sharing product information and marketing<br />
BUT :<br />
Packaging does not necessarily need to be made from petroleum based plastics.<br />
Most packaging have a short life and therefore give rise to large quantities of waste.<br />
Accordingly, it is vital to use the most suitable raw materials and implement good<br />
‘end-of-life’ solutions. Biobased and compostable materials have a key role to play<br />
in this respect.<br />
Biobased packaging<br />
» is packaging made from mother nature‘s gifts.<br />
» can be made from renewable resources or waste streams<br />
» can offer innovative features and beneficial barrier properties<br />
» can help to reduces the depletion of finite fossil resources and CO 2<br />
emissions<br />
» can offer environmental benefits in the end-of-life phase<br />
» offers incredible opportunities.<br />
That‘s why bioplastics MAGAZINE (in cooperation with Green Serendipity is now<br />
organizing the third edition of bio!PAC<br />
