The unit's stated objective is to provide industrial clients with the requisite prediction, evaluation and modeling tools for designing packaging that is increasingly efficient, health conscious and environmentally friendly. The industrial stakes involved are critical, especially with the development of bisourced and biodegradable materials, nanocomposites and reuse of recycled materials.
