Fields Flooded with Valuable Materials
Every year, after the combines and balers have finished their work, Europe’s farmland is left covered in something that has no obvious place to go. Wheat stalks. Hemp hurd. Nettle […]
How Bio-LUSH and CELLFIL Are Reimagining Europe’s Circular Bioeconomy
For decades, Europe’s forests, fields, and coastlines have quietly produced an abundance of biomass that rarely reaches its full potential. Agricultural residues, underutilised plants, textile waste, and even marine biomass […]
When Size Makes the Difference: Bio-LUSH Research at Nordic Polymer Days 2026
When working with microfibrillated cellulose, size is more than a measurement. It influences how the material flows, how it responds during processing, and ultimately how it performs in the products […]
Bio-LUSH Researchers at the Cellulose International Summit 2026
Cellulose rarely makes headlines, yet it sits at the centre of some of today’s most important questions in sustainable materials. How do we produce it with less energy? How can […]
Bio-LUSH at the 2025 MRS Fall Meeting & Exhibit
At the 2025 MRS Fall Meeting & Exhibit in Boston (30 November – 5 December), Bio-LUSH researchers presented their work on bioinspired nanocellulose 3D printing materials, exploring how controlled anisotropic particles can be developed into functional structures, advancing the project’s vision for sustainable, high-performance bio-based materials.
Bio-LUSH General Assembly in Dübendorf – Innovation, Insights & a Bit of Zurich Charm
From May 26–28, the Bio-LUSH team came together in Dübendorf, Switzerland, for our General Assembly, hosted by Empa – the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology. Over three days, we shared updates, aligned on next steps, and got a close-up look at where the Bio-LUSH process is coming to life.
Brainstorming at the “Insights Into EU’s Modern Bioeconomy – New Ways to Valorise Underexploited Biomass” Workshop
On October 15th, the Technical University of Munich played host to the “Insights Into EU’s Modern Bioeconomy – New Ways to Valorise Underexploited Biomass” workshop. This event offered a perfect opportunity for projects to display their newest developments in transforming underutilized biomass into high-value products.
