MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611107637 A) filed by Thapar Institute Of Engineering & Technology on September 08, 2026, for Sustainable Multilayer Packaging Material Comprising Agricultural Waste Derived Polymer.
Inventors include Gurleen Kaur; and Dr. Gaurav Goel.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a biodegradable multilayer packaging film derived from renewable agricultural waste resources for packaging dry particulate consumable products. The film comprises an outer structural layer containing sugarcane bagasse fibers and hemp fibers, a middle barrier layer comprising sodium alginate and turmeric oleoresin, and an inner sealant layer comprising tamarind seed polysaccharide and wax. The multilayer configuration provides enhanced mechanical strength, oxygen and moisture barrier properties, antimicrobial activity, and effective sealing performance. The packaging film is environmentally sustainable, compostable, and compatible with existing form-fill-seal packaging systems, thereby providing an eco-friendly alternative to conventional petroleum-based multilayer packaging materials while reducing plastic waste and improving product preservation.
