Sustainable and innovative cellulose-based materials and products (SusChemCell)

The project is based on innovative, state-of-the-art and environmentally friendly chemistry/engineering for the treatment of wood and cellulose that enables the creation of future sustainable products and innovations. The project aims to maximize the value of the forest raw material by developing high-quality products that have at least the same characteristics and price as today's fossil-based products. In addition, the project will lead to new sustainable technologies and innovations to increase the performance of wood that can compete with e.g. aluminium and produce paper for new applications such as energy storage. Synergy with the region's forest industry expertise gives us increased ability to create value from bio-feedstock. In conclusion, our green innovations will lead to the sustainable products of the future, stronger education, jobs and even new companies that can compete on a national and global arena. The project also contributes to a good environment and integration of people regardless of ethnic background, gender and religion.
