RESEARCH DESIGNS FUTURE
At Technikum Laubholz, we focus on developing technologies and materials that drive the transition toward a more sustainable and resource-efficient economy. Our goal is to create solutions that are both ecologically and economically viable for the future, transforming industrial value creation in a sustainable way.
Our Fields of research
Sustainable Materials
In the research field of Sustainable Materials, we develop scalable technologies based on hardwood that replace fossil resources and enable the transition to a circular industry. Our solutions are used wherever performance and sustainability are required – from textiles to lightweight construction. In this way, we shape a production process that conserves resources and actively drives change forward.
Biotechnology
In the research field of Biotechnology, we develop highly efficient processes to transform side streams from biorefineries into valuable products. Using biological catalysts such as enzymes and microorganisms, we create sustainable solutions for industry and agriculture. In this way, we purposefully drive the transition toward a bio-based, resource-conserving production.
Plant Polymers
In the research field of Plant Polymers, we unlock the potential of plant-based raw materials such as wood to make cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose usable for industrial applications. Through innovative processes, new materials with versatile properties are created. In this way, we actively help shape the transition to a bio-based, resource-conserving industry.
