What if we could fight plastic waste not by learni What if we could fight plastic waste not by learning to make “less harmful” plastic but by thinking outside the box completely? The AQUAPACK initiative is reimagining algae and fish waste as sustainable materials for eco-friendly packaging – and it’s a game-changer! ♻️ Led by the @agricultural_university_athens and backed by EU funding, this project brings together 14 partners across Europe to create: ✔️ Biodegradable films. ✔️ Smart biosensors for monitoring food freshness. ✔️ Antimicrobial packaging that extends shelf life. The best part? It’s compostable, sustainable, and designed to protect our planet 🌍. Over the next four years, AQUAPACK will test these innovations in real-world settings, pushing the food and cosmetics industries toward a greener future. 🔗 Curious to learn more?
