Project description

The objective of the R3Pack project is to build an ecosystem for demonstrating solutions regarding design and recycling of non-domestic packaging. Concrete actions are: building infrastructure for design in the Circular Solution Lab at Howest, building a pilot line on advanced washing processes for high-quality recycling at UGent, and further developing the characterisation and processing infrastructure for new product designs at Centexbel and Howest.
