OXEA develops high-performance, bio-based lubricants We’re proud to have contributed to a research project that won the 2025 #Sustainability Prize from the Environmental Foundation of the East Westphalian Economy, Germany. In collaboration with the Harald Gröger Working Group at Universität Bielefeld and Klüber Lubrication, our team developed a biodegradable #lubricant for marine engines that combines strong performance with sustainability. "This project shows how sustainability and our existing technology go hand in hand," said Benjamin Schieweck, Technology Center Lead at #OXEA. "It's a great example of how collaboration between science and industry can turn an idea into a real, sustainable solution." The award highlights OXEA’s contribution to making sustainable #chemistry a reality on an industrial scale In the photo: OXEA Laboratory Technician Gina Prüß and Benjamin Schieweck.

Recell at Rotterdam Processing Week: Scaling Clean-Tech for a Competitive Circular Future   We were honored to be invited by ISPT - Institute for Sustainable Process Technology to speak at the Rotterdam Processing Week, where our technical lead Yme Flapper presented the latest breakthroughs in our clean-tech innovations: Cellforce and Cellvation B.V. Both technologies transform cellulosic waste streams into high-value, green resources for construction materials, bio-composites and green chemical applications. All while drastically reducing carbon emissions. Yme’s presentation showcased not only the immense economic and environmental potential, but also the technical challenges we’ve overcome on our path to scale. These milestones bring us closer to realizing a truly circular and competitive carbon economy. The future of sustainable innovation is within reach, and we’re building it. #Recell #Cellforce #Cellvation #Cleantech #CircularCarbon #GreenChemistry #Biobased #Sustainability #RotterdamProcessingWeek #ISPT #Innovation #ScalingUp

Sunlab and Tecnalia at EU PVSEC 2025 During the PVSEC conference, we stayed to hold meetings with Tecnalia, one of Spain’s largest research and technology centers. We discussed the technical aspects of our process and possible areas for collaboration — from material validation to pilot-scale implementation. Partnerships with research institutions are a key part of SunLabTech’s mission: we believe that combining science and engineering is the only way to build a truly sustainable recycling industry. #Tecnalia #Sunlab #SunlabTech #PVSEC #Cleantech #Recycling #SolarEnergy #RND #Innovation #CircularEconomy

🔹 Building the future on four pillars 🔹 At BIOS MATER, we’re redefining construction through innovation, safety, circularity, and collaboration. 🏗️ Innovation in Bio-Based Construction – Creating high-performance building materials from agri-food and industrial bio-residues. 🌱 Safe and Sustainable by Design – Ensuring new materials are safe for people and the planet. ♻️ Circular Economy Integration – Designing products to be recyclable, durable, and scalable across Europe. 🤝 Market Adoption through Engagement – Building trust and awareness through transparency and stakeholder collaboration. Together, these four pillars support a new, sustainable foundation for Europe’s construction future. #BIOSMATER #Bioeconomy #SustainableConstruction #CircularEconomy #Innovation #EUProjects #BIOSMATER Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) Bio-based Industries Consortium (BIC) DREVEN The Association of Balkan Eco-Innovation F6S PHEE Celignis Biomass Lab Orineo Wageningen Food & Biobased Research AIMPLAS · Technological Institute of Plastics Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH) Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) 4D-Mater Levery s.r.l.

New IETS Task report: Pathways Towards Net-Zero and Negative-Emission Biorefineries. The report is based on work within Task XI - Industry-based Biorefineries Towards Sustainability focusing on identifying technology pathways towards net-zero and negative-emission biorefineries., including development of evaluation frameworks, appropriate system boundaries, and first applications of multi-criteria assessments to compare technological options. The report describes concrete technology options, case studies, and best-practice pathways.

🌍 Collaboration is at the heart of BIOS MATER. Our coordinator, Carlos Pérez Montero Pérez (CIRCE - Centro Tecnológico), reminds us why: partners from across Europe are joining forces to decarbonize construction by embedding the principles of the bioeconomy and circular economy. Together, we’re turning ambition into action, and building a future where construction is safe, sustainable, and circular. #BIOSMATER #GreenConstruction #Bioeconomy #CircularEconomy #Innovation #Sustainability #EUProjects Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) DREVEN The Association of Balkan Eco-Innovation F6S Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) Bio-based Industries Consortium (BIC) DREVEN PHEE Celignis Biomass Lab Orineo Wageningen University & Research AIMPLAS · Technological Institute of Plastics Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH) Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) 4D-Mater Levery s.r.l.
