17 Jul 2018 --- BillerudKorsnäs and a research team at Uppsala University have developed an eco-friendly and inexpensive paper battery with the commercial potential to facilitate advancements in connected packaging. The collaboration has taken basic research based on pure cellulose from algae and extended it to work with the same type of fiber that BillerudKorsnäs usually uses to manufacture packaging material. The long-term aim is to enable large-scale production and the future use of paper batteries for applications in areas such as smart packaging.
