LIFE RESTART is one of the projects of the month, relaunched by the Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security, which is the National Contact Point for the European Union’s LIFE Programme (NCP).

This is an important recognition that highlights the work carried out by the entire project partnership on the themes of the circular economy, environmental sustainability and innovation in materials. And which, with Fabbrica Zero and ecobuddy products, is creating something unique: newly formulated bioplastics that are totally green and produced from the waste products of beer (spent grain), oil (olive pomace) and coffee (silverskin) production.
