Pioneering Borealis innovation as a viable and more sustainable alternative to non-recyclable packaging for meat and dairy products
Borealis has developed a groundbreaking application based on its proprietary Borstar® Nucleation Technology (BNT), which significantly increases the circularity of plastic food packaging.
