Professor Assunta Marrocchi, from the Department of Chemistry, Biology and Biotechnology, and Professor Ombretta Marconi, from the Department of Agricultural, Food and Environmental Sciences at the University of Perugia and Director of the Research Centre for Brewing Excellence (CERB), have been awarded around 4.8 million euros in funding for the Polymeer project.

Through Interreg Central Europe, the European Union's funding programme for the development of the whole of Central Europe, and involving various public and private bodies, a project called D4Pack was born. D4Pack is a project that aims to create an advisory service to help agri-food SMEs evaluate the implementation of new sustainable packaging to ensure the durability of products, reduce their environmental impact and food waste.
