Winner of the 'Grand Prix' in the 2018 edition, the industrial start-up coming from the university research field, produces a 100% bio based thermoplastic material (based on milk proteins), fully biodegradable, certified home compost and OK biodegradable water. Transformed in water-soluble packaging film, this new material can be used as a substitute for certain plastics used in the food industry.
According to Marion Vincent, innovation project manager: "Since winning, we have benefitted from a huge amount of support from Citeo with regard to visibility on events, networking, and project financing".
