Mixcycling is a spin-off of an industrial group with a 50-year history in making closures for the Spirits & Wine sector. It develops sustainable materials by exploiting the properties of organic fibers derived from the production scraps and fusing them with bio-based, recycled or virgin polymers. The objective is to reduce the environmental impact linked to an excessive consumption of traditional fossil-based plastic.
In GREEN-LOOP, Mixcycling is extensively involved in WP4, whose main goal is to design and optimize a bioplastic material.
It will provide the biomass for the final product and perform its chemical compounding, characterization and optimization.
