The GRECO Project was represented at the 9th PLA World Congress, held on 2-3 June 2026 in Munich.

During the event, Karen Contreras Lozano, R&D Technician in Mechanochemistry and Reactive Extrusion at AIMPLAS – Technological Institute of Plastics, delivered the presentation “Improving biodegradation and mechanical performance of PLA food packaging via copolymerization by reactive extrusion (REX)”.

The contribution highlighted GRECO’s ongoing research on renewable and biodegradable plastics, with a focus on improving the performance and sustainability of PLA-based food packaging solutions.

GRECO would like to thank the organizers and participants for the valuable discussions and knowledge exchange on the future of bioplastics, circular economy, and sustainable packaging innovation.
