R&D - Project

Biocoma Ongoing

Systemic bio-based coating and paint solutions for building materials in exterior applications

The BIOCOMA project aims to develop bio-based, non-toxic paints for external applications in the construction sector, as an alternative to current fossil-based formulations.

PlastFlow Ongoing

PFAS-free additives for use as processing aids and to enhance tribological properties

PlastFlow develops plastic formulations using existing and newly developed additives to replace PFAS, thereby improving tribological properties and processing aids.

Protewin Ongoing

The Walloon Innovation Ecosystem Dedicated to Alternative Proteins and Protein Transition

Protewin is a collaborative network advancing innovation and European engagement across Wallonia's alternative protein ecosystem.

Wearable Ongoing

Valorization of agricultural biomasses for bio-based and sustainable lubricant additives

The CORNET WearABLE project develops bio-based alternatives to anti-wear additives used in engine lubricants.

PaperForm Ongoing

Optimized paper and tools solutions for (Vertical) Form Fill and Seal packaging process

Optimization of tools and properties of fibrous materials, including the development of bio-based coatings, to improve their compatibility with VFFS processes.

NITRIFREE Ongoing

New strategies for the sustainable stabilization of nitrite-free charcuterie products

NitriFree aims to develop nitrite-free meat products by combining natural antimicrobial ingredients extracted from plants and food co-products with high-pressure hydrostatic technology.

FUNBIOMAT Ongoing

Highly dispersible functionalized biobased fibers for advanced biopolyester materials

Development of innovative methods to optimize the distribution of bio-based additives made of cellulose nanofibers (CNF) in biopolyesters.

FOODWAL Ongoing

Stimulating Food Innovation in Wallonia

Peptiboost & Proteboost develop sustainable and industrializable approaches to produce and characterize bioactive peptides and proteins, improving the quality of food products.

BIORELEACIDE Ongoing

Bio-based capsules for the controlled release of pesticides.

The main objective of the BIORELEACIDE project is the development of bio-based formulations with different controlled release rates of phytosanitary agents.

RECYBER Completed

Advanced circular rubber

Develop an advanced circular rubber material with a reduced carbon footprint and improved end-of-life recyclability through the use of bio-based raw materials.
