Foaming of Bioplastics: Technologies, Challenges and Future Directions. By Dr Laura Pilon

Projects

Discover why the VITAL project partners are so invested in the potential of foamed materials! This innovative technology brings a host of advantages that align perfectly with the goals of sustainable development and the circular economy. Foamed materials stand out due to their lighter weight, which not only conserves resources by reducing material usage but also minimizes the environmental impact during transportation.


But that’s not all – these materials offer exceptional thermal and sound insulation, enhance comfort through increased compliance, and provide superior impact and liquid absorption. They even offer improved fracture resistance. By incorporating air into products, we’re able to craft solutions that are as efficient as they are environmentally friendly.
