"Working together for a green, competitive and inclusive Europe"

In the period July 2021 - February 2023, Menos implemented a project co-financed from the Norwey Grants entitled "Launch of new/environmental packaging by Menos".

The aim of the project is to produce new / ecological corrugated cardboard packaging with a coating that minimizes water absorption and packaging with reduced flammability.

The first type is packaging coated with a barrier hydrophobic layer and can replace multi-layer packaging used in the food industry that include plastic and metal layers. The second type is packaging coated with a highly fire-resistant layer containing citric acid and sodium benzoate which are fully safe for the environment – that can be used in the furniture and chemical industries. Both types of packaging are easily recyclable thanks to the simple compositions, and will constitute good-value alternatives of good durability to packaging which is unrecyclable or difficult to recycle. These solutions were created by our own development team, and their efficiency has been tested by a research unit.
