Can sustainable materials transform mobility?
MATERI’ACT snaps up 6.3 M€ funding to develop materials with up to 100% recycled content and support the French government’s France 2030 strategy.
The teams at MATERI’ACT were delighted to get 6.3 M€ of French government funding as part of the MATURE project: MATériaux dURables pour l’automobilE, or Sustainable Materials for Automotive.
The aim? Develop high-performance recycled and biosourced materials that are lighter and have a lower environmental impact – including full recyclability. Just the kind of materials they are already working on!
As part of MATURE, MATERI’ACT will add extra momentum to the automotive industry’s ecological transition and the growing need (and desire) for cleaner, more circular technologies. By prioritising both sustainability and performance, the project aims to reinforce France’s position as a sustainable vehicle manufacturer, while also boosting the country’s automotive supply chain.
The teams can’t wait to get involved and use the funding to boost upcoming projects
