Aimplas will improve the process for the manufacture of plastic containers

Aimplas, Technological Institute of plastics, will start early next year the Cobapack project, which aims to provide an environmental improvement in the manufacture of plastic containers using an innovative process of transformation.
The project seeks to reduce the amount of waste that is generated in the manufacturing of plastic containers. To achieve this will be used material from renewable sources, which in addition to maintaining the properties of traditional materials, will have a greater potential for recyclability, which will mean an improvement in terms of sustainability and a reduction of the environmental impact of the plastic container after use. These innovations would have an impact also in a decrease in costs.
Other advantages that will provide the project will be the flexibility with regard to traditional manufacturing processes, and the possibility of using diverse materials and a greater variety of designs.
