Sustainable Manufacturing and Environmental Pollution Programme

Profile Sheet: FRESHPPACT Impact Hub

Blue Skies, in collaboration with Waitrose, has launched the FRESHPPACT Impact Hub to create a platform that facilitates research and development into the shared environmental challenges facing the fresh produce industry, specifically those with food supply chains rooted in developing or emerging economies. Initial Challenge areas focus on problem plastics found in Agricultural Mulch; Workwear; and Packaging. Solutions may include new technology and business models that mitigate plastic pollution through material substitution, accelerated biodegradation and improved manufacturing and remanufacturing processes.
