📣 Our 6th consortium meeting has officially concluded, and what an inspiring and productive two days it has been! Hosted by the wonderful teams at INDRESMAT® and Leitat Technological Center in the beautiful cities of Barcelona and Terrassa! During the meeting, we reviewed the progress of our work packages and case studies, ensuring we’re all aligned and ready to make the final year of this project truly impactful. These discussions were crucial in shaping our path forward and strengthening our collective vision. The meeting also served as a great opportunity to reconnect with partners, address key challenges, and refine our roadmap for what’s to come. A heartfelt thank you to Pablo R. Outón 🇪🇺, Ina Keridou, and the organizing teams for their incredible hospitality and for arranging such insightful visits to Leitat Technological Center and INDRESMAT® facilities. Your efforts made this gathering both productive and memorable! Here’s to continued collaboration and success as we move forward together!🚀 Follow up to see what's ahead for us in 2025! This project wouldn't be possible without our amazing SURPASS team: CEA-Liten Leitat Technological Center, IPC Centre Technique Industriel de la Plasturgie et des Composites CIDETEC, Fraunhofer ICT , RIVM National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, Université Grenoble Alpes, UNE - Asociación Española de Normalización, Waste Free Oceans, Wipak, Geonardo Environmental Technologies and BASF. #SURPASSProject #Innovation #Polymers #Consortium #Sustainability

Yesterday we hosted at INDRESMAT® facilities in #Barcelona the M30 General Assembly of SURPASS Project, our 2nd EU collaborative project where we are developing some bioPUR formulations with a disruptive technology that will make them reprocessable at their end of life. Polyurethane materials are known because of their difficulty in recycling compared to conventional plastics and a novel reprocessing technique, so called vitrimerization, is being used to process these waste streams, requiring some modifications in our formulations. This is a promising technology where our company is having a key role for its industrial implementation. The organizations that participated in the meeting are: Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique et aux Energies Alternatives, Leitat Technological Center, IPC Centre Technique Industriel de la Plasturgie et des Composites, CIDETEC, Fraunhofer ICT, RIVM National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, Université Grenoble Alpes, UNE Asociación Española de Normalización, Waste Free Oceans, Wipak, Geonardo Environmental Technologies and BASF. Circularity is indeed another innovation line we have focused on, making us a unique company in our field, so stay tuned for further advancements about this exciting technology! Let's make industry. Let's make it happen! #BioPolyurethane #CicularEconomy #Reprocessing #Technology #Waste #Chemistry #Vitrimerization

📣 Important SURPASS news from our work package on packaging! "Recyclable MultiNanoLayer (MNL) films offer a sustainable alternative to traditional multi-layer packaging films. By reducing compatibilizer concentration and employing a continuous coextrusion process, these films can feature up to 1000 layers." Are you curious to know more? Read our latest findings on the developments on Recyclable MultiNanoLayer films here below 👇 It is also available on the Plastics Insights website in English and German: EN: https://lnkd.in/epQ-Ecrq DE: https://lnkd.in/esedysEe Article written by our partners Geraldine Cabrera Alvino from IPC Centre Technique Industriel de la Plasturgie et des Composites & Irma Mikonsaari from Fraunhofer ICT
