R&D

L'objectif du Living Lab Carpet est de donner une seconde vie aux tapis en établissant les conditions-cadres pour les modèles commerciaux de réutilisation, de réparation et de remise à neuf.

By creating a versatile hybrid plug & play wearable sensor technology platform, expertise in functional skin adhesives and smart textiles will be combined with the aim of making wearable technology more accessible to SMEs.

Blueprint to reduce textile waste by 80%

Bio-Uptake aims to promote the sustainable adoption (a 39% increase) of bioplastic composites in the European manufacturing industry through a combined green and digital transformation.

The ALIGNED project will deliver a modelling framework to assess and optimise the environmental and socio-economic performance of bio-based industries.

CISUTAC will find a solution to the current bottlenecks in the transition to circular and sustainable textiles and clothing.

SUINK will do away with large amounts of copper cables in millions of cars by replacing them with bio-based piezoelectric modules. It is a great example of how a novel technology can reduce the use of raw materials while increasing the bio-based and/or recycled content in the automotive sector.

The TOOL4LIFE project manufactures tools in thermoplastic materials with hybrid technology (AM followed by milling and in-mould coating). The process makes it possible to use less polymer material, consume less energy and emit less CO2.

Les revêtements dégradables augmentent la biodégradabilité des matériaux revêtus et simplifient le traitement et le recyclage des déchets sans impuretés provenant des polymères de revêtement.

Le projet a pour objectif d’améliorer les performances de l’électrolyse de l’eau pour produire de l’hydrogène vert dans les meilleures conditions techniques et économiques.
