Citeo-CTP partnership Review
Innovation Programme to unleash the full potential of paper and board!
Paper and board is renewable and recyclable, and has yet to reveal all its strengths. Given the pressing need to reduce environmental impacts, there is still room for improvement. Building on the past years of collaboration and innovation in paper and paper/board packaging, Citeo and the Centre Technique du Papier (CTP) have just carried out an initial review. With always one key aim: developing their innovative solutions at an industrial scale to make them available to companies in tangible ways, and hence meet the expectations of consumers.
CelluWiz (2019-2022)
Process developments to obtain 100% cellulosic packaging material, barrier, recyclable and compostable
- Develop two technologies: chromatogeny and wet lamination of MFC
- Produce a fully cellulosic multilayer packaging that is recyclable and compostable
- Provide an alternative to the plastic-based multilayers in packaging
E-BLISS
An innovative blister, recyclable and biodegradable
- To anticipate the French Law against waste and for Circular Economy (AGEC) which bans the use of plastic films for delivery of printed documents (newspapers, magazines, advertisements, etc.) from 2022.
- To create a transparent paper to replace plastic blister packs for magazines and newspapers.
- To support the implementation and production of this new innovative cellulose packaging
Industrial development of Chromatogeny
A technology currently being deployed
- Accelerate the industrialization of Chromatogeny
- Develop a pool of machines in France and Europe to meet the needs of targeted markets (food & non-food)
- Support industrials in the transfer of Chromatogeny technology
