BIOMAT is a Hub that promotes the knowledge and use of innovative technology to make the production and consumption of biomaterials more sustainable for the environment and for the people who manufacture and use them.
Great
future potential
Biomaterials can be defined as all natural fibres of plant or animal origin and innovative bio-fabricated products. They are used in several industries: fashion, luxury, automotive, mobile, but most importantly, they can be part of the solution towards securing a carbon neutral future.
