17 May 2024 --- Aimplas has been officially recognized for contributions to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) “Zero Hunger” by developing edible packaging coatings for citrus fruits, made from fruit pulp waste, which help reduce fungal rot. Aimplas’ research was carried out as part of the BiOrangePack project, which aims to increase the efficiency, sustainability and competitiveness of the organic citrus supply chain in the EU-Med area. The project focuses on reducing post-farming fruit losses caused by fungal pathogens.
