Welcome

to the laboratory of Biopolymer Technology!

Take a video tour!

Our mission The main focus of the laboratory's research is the valorisation of bio-based environmental resources in everyday and high-tech applications. The aim is to find sustainable alternatives to fossil-based polymeric materials by applying bio-based alternatives and recyclables.

We teach

Academic education

We are involved at all levels of the academic education. Our group supports international students exchange.
