ExpectedOutcome:In line with the objectives of the Sustainable Products Initiative as well as the EU Plastics Strategy, successful proposals will facilitate the large-scale deployment of new sustainable and high-performing packaging materials, including alternatives to plastics. Successful proposals will also contribute to the implementation of the EU Bioeconomy strategy, the Circular Economy Action Plan and the updated Industrial Strategy.

Project results should contribute to the following expected outcomes:

Improved barrier properties (e.g., oxygen, grease and/or water, depending on application) with respect to existing fossil and/or bio-based benchmarksImproved durability also in unfavourable environments (e.g. high humidity, high or low temperatures depending on the application) with respect to existing fossil and/or bio-based benchmarksImproved sustainability and circularity with respect to existing fossil and/or bio-based benchmarksAvailability of a broader range of circular bio-based packaging products meeting market requirements (depending on specific application)Contribution to deployment or strengthening of replicable, regional/local, circular bi... ver más

Scope:The packaging business is undergoing considerable transformations due to pressing legislative changes, the issue of plastic littering and changes in customer behaviour. While consumer products make up a considerable share of packaging products, industrial packaging products also need to be considered. Future packaging products need to be bio-based, recyclable and/or biodegradable, lightweight and functional. A challenge is represented by the seemingly opposing requirements of barrier/surface properties (obtained by innovative coatings or multi-layered structures) and the need to make the product easy to recycle (easier with fully bio-based or mono-material structures).

Proposals under this topic should:

Upscale production technologies and deploy the complete value chain to bio-based[1] packaging materials with improved functional properties, meeting market and sustainability/circularity/environmental performance requirements. Applications and the related requirements should be clearly identified and addressed.More specifically, focus on improvement of surface[2] and/or barrier properties, enabling circularity and improved environmental performance while also meeting technical performance requirements. Innovation can focus on one, more or all components (e.g. substrate/polymer, coatings, films, additives) of the bio-based packaging product, provided that technical, circularity and environmental requirements are met by the product as a whole.Address and demonstrate at relevant scale the sustainable end-of-life of the developed products, in particular compatibility with the existing recycling streams and/or, based on standards, their compostability or biodegradability, depending on the application sought. Reuse and remanufacturing are also in scope when compatible with the application and common practices.Verify the regulatory status of the new product and its safety for the intended use (especially important in food packaging) and for the environment.Depending on the biomass feedstock in scope, apply existing certification schemes.Consider end-users perception, behaviour and preferences for product design (especially important in food and consumer goods packaging, but also relevant in industrial packaging) but also in terms of disposal at end-of-life (e.g. avoiding littering, enabling easy sorting and high-target recycling with the correct stream).Employ low-emission and energy efficient process and ensure improved sustainability profiles for the products in scope compared to existing bio-based solutions. Proposals are recommended to include a task to perform an assessment based on the safe-and-sustainable-by-design (SSbD) framework, developed by the European Commission, for assessing the safety and sustainability of chemicals and materials[3]. Under this context, proposals are recommended to also include a task to contribute with and develop recommendations that can advance further the application of the SSbD framework[4].

Proposals may consider making existing/new industrial assets (e.g., labs, test rigs, etc.) accessible to researchers, SMEs, etc., for visiting, training and testing bio-based processes.

Proposals must implement the multi-actor approach and demonstrate the involvement of all concerned key actors, including the involvement of brand owners[5] and any relevant B2B[5] actors.

Proposals should also describe their contribution to the Specific CBE JU requirements, presented in section 2.2.3.1, and the Cross-cutting elements, highlighted in section 2.2.3.2 of the CBE JU Annual Work Programme 2023[7].

Where relevant, proposals should seek links with and capitalise on the results of past and ongoing EU funded projects[8].


[1]In the context of this topic, bio-based is considered as having at least 95% of organic carbon content from bio-based sources (measured using the C 14 method as defined in EN 16640:2017)

[2]In the context of this topic, surface properties are those related to the interface between the packaging product and its content, on one side, and between the packaging product the outer environment, on the other. They can be conferred by a specific surface layer or treatment as well as by intrinsic properties of the bulk material.

[3]See documents defining the framework and criteria on: https://ec.europa.eu/info/research-and-innovation/research-area/industrial-research-and-innovation/key-enabling-technologies/advanced-materials-and-chemicals_en.

[4]More specifically, provide thresholds that can support the criteria definition and improvements for the assessment SSbD methodologies, including any specificities related with bio-based surfactants. Recommendations should also include identification of data gaps, especially safety, environmental, but also socio-economic factors, as well as priorities for data collection.
