KET4CP funding granted for start scale-up of biomass

The manufacturing sector is of a great importance for Europe in terms of its value creation and employment potential. Especially Asian countries have risen up to the top rank of manufacturing whereby competition is becoming tougher. To remain competitive, manufacturing small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in Europe need to reinforce their innovation capacities through the integration and usage of key enabling technologies (KETs).

Within this context, clean production processes are seen as a key part of a new industrial revolution and as a crucial competitive factor: It is expected that factories of the future will use highly energy- and material- efficient processes, employ renewable and recycled materials, and increasingly adopt sustainable business models bringing together different components of the value chain to optimize production processes.

The EU-funded project KET4CleanProduction (KET4CP) sets its strategic objectives on helping SMEs to solve their clean production challenges and – as a result – to stay sustainable, innovative and competitive. By encouraging the use of advanced manufacturing technologies and related key enabling technologies (KETs) their production processes suppose to upgrade towards a more energy- and material- efficient state.

NEFFA has been granted European funding of KET4CP to take the first steps in scaling-up of MycoTEX. In 2021 we will be launching our improved, sustainable and flexible material.

” A very innovative idea for textile fabrication avoiding many of the wasteful steps of traditional methods. It is quite clear the company has the necessary resources to take the technology to market.”

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 777441.
