Their key achievements include:
- Developing flame‑retardant, durable PLA grades now ready for mainstream applications - and already commercially available.
- Delivering breakthrough foaming technologies for biobased plastics, including foam injection moulding, low‑energy bead foaming, and 3D foam printing.
- Demonstrating significant reductions in material use, energy demand, and carbon impact across automotive, marine, and white‑goods applications.

At VITAL Project, sustainability and performance have developed hand in hand paving the way for Europe’s climate‑neutral manufacturing future.
