Engineer Circular Economy Coatings and Renewable Materials

Do you have your eye on bio-based coatings? With good reason, this product category offers great performance, while keeping greenhouse gas emissions at bay and posing less threats to our environment. Contact me to assist in research projects and define possible applications. 

Good to know: I also wear a different hat at Sirris. One that says ‘paper recycling’. To be more specific, I’m developing a paper recycling test in collaboration with the industry to align the process with new climate goals. Get in touch to know more about this initiative and its results.
