Detail description
LoopVine is developing bio-based cleaning products from unsold fruit and fruit residues. The solution transforms supermarket fruit waste into eco-friendly cleaning products such as universal cleaners, degreasers, toilet cleaners, limescale removers, and laundry products. The innovation follows circular bioeconomy principles by reducing food waste and dependence on fossil-based ingredients while creating safe and biodegradable alternatives to conventional cleaners. The project is currently in development and validation phase (TRL 5).
