WoBiCo

From Wood to Sustainable Biocomposites

The overall objective of WoBiCo is to generate knowledge and technology enabling sustainable production and use of thermomechanical pulp (TMP) fibres and cellulose nanofibrils (CNF)-based thermoplastic biocomposites. In addition we will develop solutions to use fibre and paper production waste as a source for polymer production.
