- W2501845594 abstract "One area where natural fibres have scope for consideration is the packaging industry. Packaging is the process of preparing an item for preservation, storage, transportation and display. The materials with which this is done depend on the category of packaging and the requirements of the item itself. Biodegradable polymers reinforced with natural fibres provide the next logical step in an effort to provide environmentally friendly cost-effective solutions for the packaging industry. The main goals for the use of natural fibres in packaging are to provide additional stiffness and strength, minimise weight and reduce cost by lowering polymer content. In addition, when combined with biodegradable polymers, natural fibres allow the biodegradability of the packaging material to be maintained. This chapter endeavours to identify the extent to which natural-fibre-based packaging is being utilised in the industry at present and the potential future applications. Plastics used for packaging are very often used once and then discarded, creating an unending waste stream. In the past, efforts to reduce this waste focused on either the use of natural fibres in non-biodegradable polymers or the use of biodegradable polymers. The importance of biodegradable polymers for sustainable development is paramount." @default.
