In a letter to Polymeris, the Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, Jean-Noël Barrot, praised the cluster's long-standing involvement in European projects. He particularly congratulated the cluster for obtaining more than €5.9 million in directly managed funding from the European Union over the past ten years.

This recognition demonstrates the European strategy implemented by Polymeris, consistent with national priorities in terms of competitiveness, ecological and digital transition, and industrial sovereignty. As a competitiveness cluster funded by the State, regions, and local authorities, Polymeris plays a strategic interface role between regional ecosystems and European agencies.

For several years, the cluster has supported its members—companies, technical centers, laboratories, and training institutions—in the identification, development, and management of European projects, particularly through the Horizon 2020, Horizon Europe, Interreg, and Euroclusters programs.

BIOntier is an ambitious European project aimed at pushing back the boundaries of sustainable, circular, high-performance biocomposites. It relies on a strategic alliance of partners to develop biosourced applications that are easy to produce, test and recycle. The project aims to accelerate the time-to-market for innovative solutions, helping to strengthen the European Union's position in the bioeconomy and sustainable technologies, while generating both industrial and societal benefits.

INCIRCULAR is a European project in which Polymeris is a partner, supporting innovation in the participating European regions. The project partners are working on the circularity of plastics in the household appliances sector. To support inter-regional innovation, the project has received funding (€360k) from the European Commission to be redistributed to 6 innovative SME projects.
