Advanced lightweight materials FOR Energy-efficient STructures
The FOREST project
The FOREST project will contribute to the decarbonisation of the transport sector by developing and implementing innovative bio-based polymers & additives and recycled carbon fibres. The goal will be achieved by combining three key drivers: Reduce, Recovery, and Reshape.
The FOREST project has received €4.3 million in funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under Grant Agreement No. 101091790.
