Seeking kerbside recyclable alternative to our flexible plastic bags used in frozen food cooking for microwave usage

• Posted by Nomad Foods
• ·
• Project Size : 0 - 50,000 €

As a global market leader in frozen foods, Nomad Foods is seeking to future-proof our packaging portfolio by identifying sustainable, kerbside-recyclable alternatives to our current flexible plastic bags. The solution must withstand continuous storage at -18°C and meet RecyClass RAM Grade A or B criteria, specifically optimized for the UK recycling infrastructure. We prioritize materials that can be integrated into existing manufacturing lines and are supported by case studies of successful market implementation. The ideal solution should be scalable across our global brand footprint.

Seeking Biomanufacturing of Transformational Ingredients in Consumer-Packaged Goods

• Project Size : 250,000 - 1,000,000 €

We are looking for approaches to engineer and optimize organisms (microbial and plant) for production and/or purification of relevant biomolecules in a non-trial-and-error format. It is believed that starting from a waste stream will be a more cost-effective solution. We are also interested in plant- or algae-based solutions that are scalable and cost effective. What We Are Looking For: • Strain engineering approaches that achieve target molecule production targets across multiple molecule classes in significantly less time versus the industry average • Host engineering capabilities in non-model systems • Scale up platforms/methods that are amenable to commodity scale ingredients • Downstream processing methods/technologies that facilitate continuous extraction and/or re-use of extractive reagents • Approaches that leverage feedstocks separate from the food chain

Seeking injectable, highly flexible sealing system for personal care devices

• Project Size : 250,000 - 1,000,000 €

We are looking for a material /process that allows to inject a flexible sealing / fluid barrier in particular areas of an already assembled device and that can fill gaps in the range of 1 mm – 3 mm between movable and fixed parts.

Coffee cherry, commonly discarded during coffee bean production, is repurposed in this innovation into a high-value nutraceutical through a clinically validated, sustainable extraction process. Rich in antioxidants and natural bioactive compounds, the product supports cardiovascular function, raises HDL (good) cholesterol, lowers LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglycerides, enhances metabolic performance, and improves blood circulation. The process is designed with minimal environmental impact generating low emissions and aligning with zero-waste, circular economy models. Backed by clinical testing for both safety and efficacy, the technology offers a scientifically grounded, health-driven alternative to synthetic supplements. The inventors seek licensing partnerships with food, beverage, and nutraceutical manufacturers, and also welcome collaboration with academic institutions for further research into coffee cherry compounds.

I am developing a thermoacoustic engine together with a concentrator and a solar thermal storage (latent power) I received a grant from ESA to develop the Thermoacoustic. We have now finished simulation and the results are promising. This technology: concentration of solar energy + thermal storage + Thermoacoustic cogeneration creates a truly green solution with no pollution and easy to maintain. The life time is expected to be 50 years since there is no wear out. We would like to propose this solution for any off grid business or non stable grid business. This technology is compatible with Biomass
