Living Lab Carpet wil een tweede leven geven aan vloerbekleding door de randvoorwaarden te creëren voor reuse, repair en refurbishing business models.

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.

Afbreekbare coatings verhogen de biologische afbreekbaarheid van gecoate materialen en vereenvoudigen de afvalverwerking en recyclage zonder onzuiverheden uit coatingpolymeren.

Het TEX2CE-project "van lineair naar circulair textiel" heeft tot doel textielbedrijven ertoe aan te zetten hun huidige producten aan het einde van hun levenscyclus opnieuw te gebruiken.
