Abstract
-
Packaging industry’s raw material producers face continuous challenges of sustainable development. Besides raw material and energy consumption mitigation, essential functions of product protection must be maintained. Re-use and recycling of waste materials must be provided, which is required by the European Union directives as well. Multi-beverage carton recycling is even more difficult due to the use of various materials, due to their diverse properties and qualities. The introduced paper is part of a complex study, which aims to prove that utilizing dry-grinding technology and no additives, semi-finished products can be produced for the packaging industry.
