Development of novel food packaging made from modified wood pulps using a pilot pulp thermoforming machine

该项目建立了Innofibre和Domtar Inc.之间的新伙伴关系。用于开发使用中试纸浆热成型机由改性木浆制成的新型食品包装。为实现项目范围，将进行的工作包括实验室/中试纸浆热成型试验和试验样品测试。Domtar的战略计划是实现其战略愿景，即成为创新纤维产品、技术和服务的领导者;致力于可持续发展和更美好的未来，战略目标是超越其需求下降的核心通信纸业务，我们的战略目标是在个人护理、纸浆和特种纸这三个需求不断增长的市场中，将自己定位为首选供应商。该项目的产品和成果符合Domtar的战略计划，以确保其有助于实现本组织的总体目标。本项目将有助于培养大学生对纸浆热成型过程的认识。在这个项目中获得的知识将提高Innofibre团队以及Domtar团队的知识。Innofibre和Domtar之间的密切合作将促进整个Domtar设施的技术转让。

This project establishes a new partnership between Innofibre and Domtar inc. for the development of novel food packaging made from modified wood pulps using a pilot pulp thermoforming machine. The work that will be performed to deliver the project scope is composed of laboratory/pilot pulp thermoforming trials and trial samples testing.The strategic plan of Domtar is to achieve its strategic vision of being the leader in innovating fiber-based products, technologies, and services; committed to a sustainable and better future, strategic goal of expanding beyond its core communications paper business, where demand is declining, and strategic objective of positioning itself as a supplier of choice in three markets with growing demand - personal care, pulp and specialty papers. The products and results of this project aligns with Domtar's strategic plan to ensure that it contributes to the overall objectives of the organization. This project will contribute to training of the college students on the process of pulp thermoforming. The knowledge gained during this project will improve the knowledge of Innofibre' team as well as those of Domtar. This close collaboration between Innofibre and Domtar will promote the technology transfer throughout Domtar facilities.
