Research made in KREATiS

In this section you will find relevant peer reviewed articles, exhibited congress posters and selected magazine articles featuring KREATiS employees and other open source publications that we think you may find useful. We have also made available information on research projects that we have worked on. All the posters are freely available as downloadable pdfs.

Ce CosmedTV apporte les réponses aux exigences des nouvelles règlementations environnementales concernant l'incorporation des matériaux recyclés dans les emballages cosmétiques. Qu'elle soit mécanique, chimique ou enzymatique, les 3 techniques de recyclage sont détaillées. La question de la traçabilité, et des interactions contenu/contenant, permettant l'évaluation de la sécurité, sont également des enjeux important du recyclage. Les travaux du consortium Cosmebooste, dont KREATiS fait parti, sont abordés dans ce contexte.
