PEF – A Circular Bio-Based Plastic with Improved Properties and Environmental Performance (PDF)
FREE
The chemical technology company Avantium (NL) partnered with nova-Institut GmbH under the framework of the PEFerence project, to perform a full cradle-to-grave Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for the YXY® Technology, assessing the potential environmental impacts of PEF packaging solutions in comparison to conventional PET packaging. The LCA is performed according to the ISO 14040/44 standard methodology. A critical peer review of the study, including experts of incumbent technologies, was conducted in order to verify whether the LCA met the requirements for methodology, data, interpretation, and reporting. This presentation from the 1st PEF World Congress summarises the main aspects about the environmental sustainability of PEF-based bottles.
