SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURE SYSTEMS TOWARDS NOVEL BIO-BASED MATERIALS

SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURE SYSTEMS TOWARDS NOVEL BIO-BASED MATERIALS

The GREEN-LOOP project addresses novel bio-based materials solutions leading to new manufacture tools, energy efficiency improvements and sustainable value chains.
Three innovative bio-based materials will be designed and optimised by the implementation of three value chains:

  • multifunctional rubber panels with fire resistance and vibrational applications
  • bioplastic bottle closures for oil and fruit juice
  • wood composites bearings for plastic injection machines

The value chain of each product will be optimised from raw material source to End Of Life of products, ensuring the circular economy and all manufacturing lines will be retrofitted to adapt to the new enhanced bio compoundings using Artificial Intelligence.
