NanoPack, a consortium led by Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, intends to develop a new antimicrobial packaging solution that helps extend food shelf life, using €7.7m ($8.22m) of funding from the European Union (EU).
The consortium will develop and test packaging products with antimicrobial surfaces over a three-year period.
US-based KBR has received a four-year contract from International Paper to provide maintenance, planning and industrial services at the latter’s offices in Svetogorsk, Russia.
International Paper produces renewable packaging and paper products.
LINPAC, a fresh foods packaging manufacturing, and Progressive Packaging have partnered to introduce complete tray pack solutions to meat and poultry packers and processers.
