INNOVATION
CIRPOL
Unió Origen SCCL. leads and participates in the project of the Agència de Residus de Catalunya CIRPOL: New circular business models based on the substitution of synethic antioxidant additives for polyphenols obtained in a sustainable way from agri-food by-products.
The project aims to replace food additives of chemical syntesis by polyphenols obtained using an innovative technology for the recovery of high value-added products (polyphenols) from by-products generated from the agri-food sector (grapes, olives, nuts and carob) promoting the circular economy.

VISENSEFILM
Unió Origen SCCL. leads and participates in the project of the Agència de Residus de Catalunya VISENSEFILM: Ecodesign and reduction of shrink plastic film used in the wine chain.
The project aims to implement, in an integraded and complete way, the ecodesign methodology in the wine sector. To achieve this, we will work on a specific case of ecodesign and reduction of the shrink plastic film used in the wine chain during the packaging phase of the boxes with wine bottles for distribution to customers.

QUALINUT
The main objective of the project is to identify and describe the main conditioning factors and defects caused by new almond varieties in industry and study if some of them can be corrected by adaptations in agronomic management in the field. This knowledge will provide relevant information, improving the industrial processes in which new varieties are involved and thus be able to increase the economic profitability of the processing industry.
