BarrierLab is a laboratory designed and built to serve
- the need to understand the causes of malfunctions in the interaction between flexible packaging and the packaging machine;
- the need to find solutions to these problems;
- the need to identify sustainable and recyclable packaging.
What inspired this project
- —The market trend to transition towards recyclability, by replacing multi-material packaging first with mono-materials, then with “biodegradables”.
- —
Europe’s new agenda for sustainable growth: the new Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP) of March 2020 commits to reinforcing the essential requirements for packaging, with a view to making packaging reusable or recyclable by 2030, together with the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR):
- move from single use to reuse;
- downgauge packaging and simplify it;
- increase recycled content in packaging.
- —The idea and expertise of people deeply rooted in the world of packaging.
What our work rests on
- —Technical know-how and the experience of our staff.
- —High-performance equipment from internationally recognised brands, calibrated or with calibration in progress.
- —Verification and testing methods aligned with the international standards specific to each determination.
