EU-funded Agrimax project, are developing and demonstrating the production of multiple, high-value products from crop and food-processing waste to tackle the millions of tonnes of food wasted every year.

Food ingredients and packaging additives can be extracted from by-products and unavoidable wastes for the agrifood production chain. If you are in this supply chain, we would like to find out your thoughts on using such compounds. The survey will take around 10 minutes to complete (all answers are anonymous).

Take the survey. (open until the 30th June 2019.)

Food ingredients and packaging additives can be extracted from by-products and wastes of the agrifood production chain.

The Agrimax project would like to find out your assessment of the applicability of these compounds in today’s food businesses.

Agrimax – an EU-funded project that is developing and demonstrating the production of multiple, high-value products from crop and food-processing waste by building two, flexible, multi-feedstock pilot biorefineries in Europe. The project aims to tackle Europe’s food waste problem as around 90 million tonnes of food and 700 million tonnes of the crop are wasted every year. The project will maximise the EU’s sustainability while providing new biobased compounds for the chemicals, food-packaging and agricultural sectors.

It will take around 10 minutes to fill in the survey. All answers will be handled anonymously; it is not possible to track back any answer to any participant of the survey.
