08 Feb 2023 --- Tetra Pak is launching what it says is “ground-breaking” research to advance fiber-based packaging for F&B applications in collaboration with MAX IV – the most modern synchrotron radiation (the electromagnetic radiation emitted when charged particles travel in curved paths) laboratory in the world. The research aims to uncover fresh insights into the nanostructure of fiber materials, with the first application to optimize the composition of materials used for paper straws, which are increasingly used as single-use plastics come under bans throughout the world.
