Fully Biodegradable High-Performance Composites

Challenge Metadata

Challenge Description

We are looking for ideas to develop thermally and mechanically strong matrix systems that are biodegradable, possibly also completely renewable. Ideally these materials are also well suited to be combined with vegetable and other biodegradable fibres into composite materials.


Implementation Partner: Ensinger Composites Schweiz GmbH


The Ensinger Group is engaged in the development, production and distribution of compounds, semi-finished products, composites, finished parts and profiles made of engineering plastics. The further development of tried-and-tested manufacturing processes, new applications and international expansion have earned the family-owned company a place in the top tier of its industry. Headquartered in Nufringen (Baden-Württemberg), the company has around 2,600 employees at more than 30 production sites and sales offices worldwide.
