Abstract

Sustainable Food Packaging Confronted with the environmental challenge posed by non-biodegradable bioplastics and fossil-based plastics in food packaging, in article number 2300600, Quim Tarrés, Eduardo Espinosa, and co-workers introduce a pioneering solution. By harnessing avocado pruning residue (APR) as a natural fiber source, the research presents a sustainable alternative to bio-based polyethylene. This innovative method suggests APR's promising role in shaping the future landscape of environmentally friendly food packaging.
