How can we transform biomass from underutilized agricultural land in the EU into valuable resources for the growing bio-based economy? The Horizon Europe MIDAS project invites you to this free webinar showcasing concrete, circular solutions to valorize biomass grown on marginal lands for high-performance bio-based industrial applications.
This webinar dives directly into our latest preliminary results, focusing on major advancements in sustainable manufacturing of biomaterials from agricultural biomass, including:
Advanced bio-based medium density fibreboards (MDF) and particleboards from woody biomass, alternative fibers and renewable binders.
Next-Generation bio-based adhesives from plant proteins as sustainable alternatives to phenol in phenol-formaldehyde resins and bio-based coatings for wood-based panels.
Join our project partners and industry experts as they share practical insights, performance data, and the scaling potential for these sustainable bio-materials.
