Launch of the European INCIRCULAR project

INCIRCULAR - INtegrating Cybernated Innovation to Raise the scale of Circular Units Looping Allied Regions

The European project INCIRCULAR - INtegrating Cybernated Innovation to Raise the scale of Circular Units Looping Allied Regions - funded by Horizon Europe began on October 1, 2023 and will run for 3 years.

The INCIRCULAR project aims to unleash the innovation potential of European regions in the plastics circular economy, thanks in particular to a cascade funding system. Indeed, innovative solutions are needed to produce new types of environmentally-friendly plastics while offering technical properties and costs similar to those of petroleum-based plastics currently on the market.

Launches of POLREC Innovation open call

The first POLREC open call is now open! This Innovation open call aims to support SMEs by funding their polymer recycling projects. It is divided into three sub-topic that will support:

  • Testing of solutions for the chemical recycling of polymer waste (plastics, rubber, composites), with a maximum budget of €30,000 per SME.
  • Testing solutions for the mechanical recycling of polymer waste (plastics, rubber, composites), with a maximum budget of €30,000 per SME.
  • Digitisation of polymer waste recycling processes to ensure traceability and control, with a maximum budget of €20,000 per SME.

The successful SMEs will be awarded a budget based on the quote from their service provider. This budget will be used exclusively to pay for the services provided as part of the project carried out by the SME.

Launch of the European project ECOLE

The ECOLE Project starts!
 
The new Interreg Alpine Space project ECOLE aims to accelerate the transition to more resource efficient and circular industries in the Alpine region by establishing an integrated model of Ecological Industrial Parks (EIPs) applying the principles of the Circular Economy (CE) not only to the product value chain, but also to the supporting functions. ECOLE will thus enable the Alpine industry to be more competitive and sustainable in the international market, making it more resilient to crises and closer to its territory.
