PI.ICCOM Abstract
The project lasts 48 months and starts to develop packaging that we can find in a few years in sectors such as food, pharmaceuticals or cosmetics. The remarkable features of these new packages are:
- Developed with Biomaterials (biodegradable and renewable sources)
- Improved thermal, mechanical and barrier properties through nanotechnology and innovative coatings, which increase the shelf life of the packaged product.
- Integration of intelligent technologies and devices to provide consumer information on both the product, and the entire life cycle of the container.
- Made of more flexible production processes and more environmentally sustainable and effective technologies.
