Avgo – Recegg project
We have a passion for addressing the Food Waste problem…every little step makes a contribution. Have embarked on a number of projects with Nottingham Trent University Professor, Carole Perry to find ways of diverting material from landfill in a straight-forward and profitable way.
CSL has been supported on a number of projects by the TSB / IUK and DEFRA.
The project has been passed on to sister company Avgo Biotech, who now have progressed the process producing customizable materials in a totally circular process and meeting the needs of Food, supplements and the pharmaceutical industry.
