The project ran between December 2023 and April 2024.
The aim of the project has been to show and evaluate the potential with advanced fiber-based closures to achieve the goal “show that a 28 mm fiber-based closure can withstand an overpressure of 6 bar”. The vision is to show that fiber-based closures can sustain pressures which occur in carbonated packaging. An additional sub-goal has been a comparison report for CO2e (not a full LCA) from Karlstad University based on data from project results and a reference HDPE closure.
Participants
Blue Ocean Closures and Karlstad University.
Budget
The project’s total budget was 1 MSEK.
