Loughborough University has recently secured funding to tackle plastic waste in the UK. The PPFTG project will develop, prototype, and evaluate a novel circular business model that combines smart-technology enabled products and services to reduce the environmental, societal, and economic impact of food to go packaging.
The project is led by Dr Garrath Wilson, based in the Design School, with co-investigators Dr Rhoda Trimingham (Design School), Dr Elliot Woolley (Manufacturing Engineering) and Dr Fiona Hatton (Materials).
