Pulp Fibre Capping and Closure Solution for Pulp Fibre Bottles

该项目将研究开发一种可回收、可生物降解的原型包装解决方案，以提供塑料包装的替代方案。最初的重点将是用模塑纸浆取代容器中的聚酯。该项目建立在迄今为止大量研究工作的基础上，这些研究工作已经为容器的制造和容器的涂层建立了解决方案，以便容纳液体。为了在商业上可行，整个产品需要是可回收/可堆肥的，因此需要努力建立一个可持续的封闭解决方案和相关的制造工艺，能够以相当的成本满足快速消费品行业所要求的生产量、产品精度和质量标准。NRL将在整个项目中与关键的行业利益相关者合作，以确保设计出市场可以接受的解决方案。

This project will undertake research into the development of a prototype recyclable, biodegradable packaging solution which provides an alternative to plastic packaging. Focus initially will be on replacement of PET in containers with moulded paper pulp. The project builds on considerable research work to date that has established a solution for the manufacture of containers and for their coating in order to hold liquids. To be commercially viable, the whole product needs to be recyclable/compostable, hence effort is required to establish a sustainable closure solution and associated manufacturing process that can meet the production volume, product accuracy and quality standards required by the FMCG sector at a comparable cost. NRL will work throughout the project with key industry stakeholders to ensure a market acceptable solution is devised.
