Sprint Challenge Brief:
Biodegradable or bio-compostable materials for single-use wipes
Submission ClosedBACKGROUND
In support of multiple global industrial partners, TechConnect Ventures is calling for Entries describing biodegradable or bio-compostable materials for single-use, disposable wet wipes. Wet wipes are widely used in a variety of applications including personal care, baby care, sanitization/disinfection, and personal hygiene. Their use for sanitization and disinfection has become especially prominent with the onset of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in 2020, a trend which is expected to remain strong even after the current health crisis abates.
The goal of this sprint is to identify materials and technologies that can delivery sustainable single-use wipes that meet growing demands in the consumer, commercial, and regulatory sectors without compromise of performance. Submissions and novel concepts from individuals and organizations at all levels are invited, including the academia, research, commercial and government sectors.
