Funding, training, networking, and market access — designed to help you develop upcycled products from your side-streams
The agri-food sector generates vast amounts of biomass and side-streams that remain underused. Fruit peels, seeds and processing residues are valuable resources that too often end up as waste instead of value.
European SMEs are ready to innovate and embrace circularity. Yet structural, financial and technological barriers slow them down, preventing the uptake of upcycled ingredients, twin transitions and scalable circular solutions.
Everything you need to turn agri-food residues into market-ready circular products.
