A Cork student’s spray-on biofilm which can be used instead of plastic and tyres to seal silage pits has won one of the big prizes in the annual Student Entrepreneur Awards.
Pitseal, an eco-friendly solution to silage covering, was developed by Marion Cantillon, a graduate of BSc Food Marketing and Entrepreneurship, now studying for her Masters Degree in Nutrition, researching biofilm technologies at University College Cork.
