Rewrap
Ghent, Belgium
The project aims to introduce a reusable pallet wrap made from repurposed single-use big bags. This innovative solution addresses two waste streams, transforming them into a valuable resource while creating job opportunities in social workshops.
Focus sectors
What do we want to achieve?
Objectives:
It aims to drive economic growth through sustainable industries, offering decent work
Decarbonisation, reuse, remanufacture and repurposing of materials and more
With the EU Green Deal phasing out single-use pallet wrap foil, Rewrap is poised to thrive in this emerging market.
Development stage: the first prototypes are made and the first performance test simulating the heavy load of a truck stop has been proven successful. The team is about to start the venture to bring the product to the market, aiming to produce >5000 pcs/year through automated processes.
What is our circularity impact?
- Reduced waste generation - transform waste into resources, by fostering circular practices.
What is our circularity strategy?
Circular strategy 4: Reuse
Reuse by another consumer of a discarded product which is still in good condition and fulfils its original function.
Circular strategy 6: Remanufacture
Use parts of discarded product in a new product with the same function.
Circular strategy 1: Refuse
Make a product redundant by abandoning its function or by offering the same function with a radically different product.
