REmanufacture the food supply chain by testing INNovative solutions for zero inorganic WASTE
“Prevent waste disposal is more sustainable and less expensive”.In MED regions, innovation support services to agro-food chain is inadequate in the scope (confined to territorial domain)&transnational cooperation is poor. This traditional “local-based” approach to tech-transfer is currently a limit.REINWASTE aggregates, on MED scale, 3 influencing food "Clusters"(IT,FR,ES) (PPP made up of R&D, foodAssociations, Reg.representatives,IPA) in waste prevention field in agro-food, to enhance transnational network of competence, select & test best available solutions & quickly transfer this knowledge. REINWASTE aims to bring a concrete contribution to the reduction of inorganic waste, favouring the adoption of greener innovative concepts by agriculture&food industry, with focus on SMEs. According to a initial analysis combining advanced tech-solutions (from EU R&D projects, R&I centres)with real companies’ requirements, it tests them within 3 value chains (IT_diary; ES_horticulture; FR_Meat).Clusters assess feasibility to launch a new service to systematize offer-demand of innovative solutions for waste prevention. 3 ActionPlans to galvanize the targets set by S3 for SMES of primary&industry sector in MED regions.3 Protocols of waste minimisation in entire food chains.Transferability plans to other agro-food chains& other relevant sectors. A tailored mix of knowledge transfer services, based on a common open innovation approach, allow the mutual contamination & use of innovation.
