About the project
Many people consider bio-based plastics as a green alternative to conventional fossil-based plastics. These plastics can offer environmental benefits, such as being made from renewable sources and sometimes being able to break down naturally. They also have a lot of promise for recycling, especially by using chemical methods to break them down into smaller units. However, before bio-based plastics can be recycled, they need to be sorted out and separated from other packaging materials, and PROSPER project coordinated by University of Ghent tackles this challenge.

Spinverse’s role
In addition to funding proposal preparation, Spinverse helped consortium with the ideation, provided subject matter expertise, identified suitable partners and implemented effective project management practises, all resulting to the success of the project proposal. Spinverse also helped to assemble a strong consortium, including the crucial participation of waste management companies.
Spinverse played a key role in ensuring a high overall quality and perfect fit of the project proposal to exactly meet the criteria of this CBE funding call. In addition, our fruitful and successful collaboration resulted in maximum scores of 15/15 in the evaluation process.
