Orthex is excited to be part of the Reusify research project, aiming to cut down on single-use packaging ?? In line with Orthex’s sustainability strategy, we are committed to investing in innovative research to increase the use of recycled and renewable plastics. The?Reusify project is one of the latest projects we are involved in. It has started in 2024 and aims to?reduce single-use packaging. The project includes several different stakeholders, as cooperation across the entire value chain is a prerequisite for a?#circulareconomy. The goal of the project is to increase the reuse of packaging by generating new knowledge and expertise on how reuse could be implemented and what kind of system it would require. Reusify project is part of the extensive and pioneering Borealis SPIRIT (Sustainable Plastics Industry Transformation) program supported by Business Finland, which aims to transform the plastics industry towards a more sustainable future. ??

Check out Grenova and My Green Lab's blogpost on the climate impact of reusing plastic consumables as the Life Sciences industry transitions to a net zero economy. Earlier this year, Grenova and Rho Impact teamed up to quantify the impact of Grenova's technology on industry emission levels as well as the emission footprints of Grenova customers. Read here to learn more about the impact study and what it means for labs around the world. Rho Impact. You bring your WHY. We'll bring everything else (including everything you need to WIN in the impact economy). https://lnkd.in/gFK_jU_U #sustainablelabs #mygreenlab #esg #emissionreduction #scope3emissions #lifesciences #esgreporting #sustainabletech #climatesolution #newnormal #netzero #impacteconomy

Braskem continues to share more insights on biopolymers this week at The Sustainability in Packaging Europe conference in Barcelona: https://lnkd.in/e4KkYQH Our very own Brendan Hill will introduce I’m green? bio-based plastics to the audience in greater detail. Our solution can be used for exactly the same things as conventional plastic. As it is made from plants?it has a lower carbon footprint. It is segregated and traceable providing transparency at every step – it is?also 100% recyclable?in existing waste streams.? ? Renewable, traceable, circular.?It's like traditional plastic but made from plants: https://lnkd.in/eTszcpUp #Braskem #Imgreen #imgreenbiobased #BioBasedPlastic #circulareconomy #biobasedmaterials #renewable #recyclable #carbonfootprint

Adelaide-based Detmold Group has announced new Sustainability Goals to be implemented from 2025, focusing on eco-friendly packaging production and processes. The company aims to increase the use of forest-certified and recycled materials, adopt more renewable energy and enhance recycling practices across its operations. Detmold Group CEO Sascha Detmold Cox emphasised the company's long-standing commitment to sustainability, including designing reusable, recyclable and compostable packaging. The rollout will have a global reach, starting with solar energy installations at their largest factory in Henan, China, complementing similar efforts at their Adelaide facility. These initiatives align with Detmold's mission to create sustainable packaging solutions for a better future.

? What is the challenge posed by #bioplastics to #recycling infrastructure? Bioplastics pose a unique challenge due to their complex composition and limited recycling infrastructure. Current recycling methods often fail to efficiently handle diverse bioplastic types like #PLA, #PHA, and #Composites, leading to environmental impact and economic loss. ? In response to this challenge, ReBioCycle aims to improve bioplastics' recycling through innovative technologies and partnerships.

Utilizing waste materials to create energy is an excellent approach to tackling environmental issues while promoting sustainable development. Your focus on microwave technology for waste processing presents a forward-thinking solution. Here are some key enhancements and considerations to strengthen this initiative: ### Key Enhancements: 1. **Community Engagement and Education**: Educate local communities on the benefits of waste-to-energy (WTE) technologies and how they can actively participate in waste collection and management. ?? 2. **Scalable Technology**: Develop modular WTE units that can be easily scaled up or down based on the needs of different communities. ?? 3. **Collaborations with Local Governments and NGOs**: Partner with local authorities and non-profits to streamline waste collection processes and ensure regulatory compliance. ?? 4. **Research and Development**: Invest in ongoing R&D to improve the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of microwave waste processing technology. ?? 5. **Circular Economy Integration**: Promote the circular economy by ensuring that by-products from the WTE process can be reused or recycled within the local community. ?? ### Implementation Strategy: - **Pilot Projects**: Start with pilot projects in selected communities to demonstrate the effectiveness of the technology and gather data for optimization. ?? - **Training Programs**: Develop training programs for local technicians to manage and operate the WTE units, fostering job creation and skill development. ?? - **Funding and Investment**: Seek funding from international environmental grants, green investment funds, and public-private partnerships to support initial setup costs. ?? ### Social and Environmental Benefits: - **Reduction in Waste Pollution**: Decrease the amount of waste going to landfills and reduce pollution. ?? - **Energy Independence**: Provide reliable, locally-sourced energy to communities, reducing dependency on external energy sources. ?? - **Economic Growth**: Create local jobs, stimulate the local economy, and foster a sense of community ownership and responsibility. ?? By focusing on these areas, your initiative can not only contribute to environmental protection but also drive social and economic growth in underserved regions. ???? #WasteToEnergy #MicrowaveTechnology #SustainableDevelopment #CircularEconomy #LocalEmpowerment #GreenInnovation #CommunityGrowth https://lnkd.in/eh8a7-wN
