The company processes leaves gathered by local city authorities \u2013 that would typically be left for decomposition \u2013 and turns them into pulp and paper for the packaging industry. In doing so, Releaf says it aims to replace virgin pulp paper with a sustainable substitute, reducing deforestation rates, lowering carbon emissions and supporting cities with the disposal of seasonal green waste.<\/p>\n<p>The technology was achieved following two years of testing and piloting, supported by partnerships and funding from the WWF and Canopy Planet. Following the scaling of production, the company now works with notable businesses from the retail and cosmetics industries, including L\u2019Oreal, Samsung, Schneider Electric, Chanel and Weleda.<\/p>\n<p>Releaf paper is produced through a four-stage process. First, fallen leaves are collected from city authorities and transported to processing plants. Crucially, Releaf does not collect from forests in order to ensure the preservation of ecosystems and the formation of topsoil. Following this, fallen leaves are cleaned and processed, whereby fibres are extracted from the raw materials to later form the basis of Releaf\u2019s paper. Next, the fibres are washed to remove foreign structures and ground down. Last, the fibrous pulp is mixed with biological fillers before being processed into a solid canvas and dried into rolls of paper.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/resource.co\/article\/startup-pioneers-paper-packaging-production-fallen-leaves\">Techonolgy Networks<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/1-414\/\">Startup pioneers paper packaging production from fallen leaves<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,6306,11792],"class_list":["post-117645","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-leaves","tag-paper-packaging"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117645","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117645"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117645\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117645"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117645"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117645"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
