PRESERVE is a European research project that develops solutions to improve the recyclability of plastics. The 4-year project started in January 2021 and receives funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 multiannual financial framework.
PRESERVE is committed to develop bio-based plastic packaging and textiles by enhancing bio-based coatings in order to improve their recyclability and, at the same time, make sure these materials can be upcycled into new packaging for non-food applications.
PRESERVE will develop 10 common packaging items that are 100% based on renewable resources with a minimal environmental impact and improved recyclability in order to easily reintroduce the materials in a circular economy.
The consortium is formed by 26 partners from 10 countries. It covers the whole supply & value chain and brings together comprehensive interdisciplinary pockets of knowledge, assessing the performance of developed solutions and upscale them to introduce new viable circular bio-based packaging solutions into the market.
