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.
RECYCHECK aims to develop a test method based on the targeted contaminants. In order to work out this test method properly, it is necessary to divide it into different parts, where both homogenisation of the sample and the selection of the best suitable analysis device are important steps.
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.
GUINEA addresses the textile and leather coating industry, the coating related industry such as formulators and the chemical producers. GUINEA focuses on technical textiles and coated leather products.
