Project
The project aims to combine its advanced bioplastic solutions with groundbreaking processing technology and to develop sustainable business models for their use. By improving current biobased formulations and developing new solutions based on aquatic biomass and organic waste, SEALIVE’s products will prevent traditional plastic from ending up as waste. The new solutions will offer greater durability, allowing them to last longer; improved design, enabling them to be recycled more efficiently; and enhanced biodegradability, ensuring they break down after use.
