Polymeris sets up in the Clermont-Ferrand ecosystem

As part of its new development strategy, Polymeris has opened a new office in Clermont-Ferrand. The new offices are located in Hall 32 of the Campus des Métiers et Qualifications autour de l'Industrie in the heart of the Cataroux park. A new innovation officer joined the cluster in early May.

This new location in the Parc Cataroux will enable Polymeris to be as close as possible to the Clermont-Ferrand ecosystem, its local members and in particular IPC, academics such as the Institut de Chimie, the Université de Clermont Auvergne and the CNEP. The Park was born out of Michelin's desire to continue developing its historic site in the heart of Clermont Ferrand. Conceived and realized with public and private players, educational organizations, entrepreneurs, multinationals, SMEs and startups, as well as representatives of civil society, the Parc Cataroux aims to be a collective response to the technological and economic challenges of today and tomorrow.

Study on the recycling and recovery of plastic waste from Health

Polymeris, in partnership with ADI-NA, will launch a study on the recycling and recovery of plastic waste from the healthcare sector as part of the ORMAT call for projects, for which the next submission date is June 1.
 
This study is based on two observations. The first one, carried by many actors in the field of health in France, indicates that this sector is a very large consumer of plastic material (secondary/primary packaging, consumables, medical devices).
However, at the present time, at the end of its life, this material is not fully recycled/valued, despite the fact that it has a grade with a high purity and a recognized traceability.
On the other hand, plastics producers will have to increase their incorporation rates of recycled materials in the coming years for regulatory reasons or in response to market demand, including in the healthcare sector.
