Welcome to the 1st workshop of VTT’s new research investment program Multi-material recycling platform on Thursday 23.3.23 at 14:00-16:00.
The target of this investment program is to develop solutions for the global polymer waste challenge by investing in state-of-the-art pilot scale recycling infrastructure and know-how for difficult to recycle plastic containing multi-materials. The materials can be plastics, textiles or composites.
Investment needs will be evaluated and prioritized through industrial collaboration and co-creation starting with the first workshop on 23.3.2023 at 14:00-16:00. The event will be organized through Microsoft Teams. You are warmly welcome to join the workshop and discuss about your views, ideas and needs. Your input will be highly valuable to the development of the program.
Remember to save the event to your calendar after the registration.
Preliminary agenda for the workshop:
- Welcome and introductions
