SFI Dsolve – A part of the solution

There is significant focus on marine littering and the importance of preventing plastic emissions in the seafood industries. New material solutions for tools and equipment can help reduce environmental challenges such as ghost fishing, macro- and microplastics caused by fishing and aquaculture. Because biodegradable plastic breaks down in seawater into minerals, water, and CO2, the long-term consequences of lost gear can be minimized. At the same time, it is important to maintain efforts for emission prevention and cleanup. In other words, new materials are part of a comprehensive solution to the plastic problem in the seafood industries.
