The “TechCirclePolymers” research initiative, led by Prof. Dr. Michael Nase, aims to develop innovative solutions for the economy and the environment through research in sustainable materials. The initiative, running from 2023 to 2026, consists of several subprojects, including BioKrümelKleie, BioCaps, RecycleBra, CO₂ Reduction, Eco Straw, BioAnalytics, and BioCurlers. These projects focus on using bakery waste, bioplastics, and recycled materials to create sustainable products such as biodegradable plant pots, screw caps, foam sheets, protective films, reusable straws, and eco-friendly hair curlers. The projects aim to reduce waste, energy consumption, and carbon emissions, while promoting the circular economy and resource efficiency. The technology transfer program targets small and medium-sized enterprises in structurally weak regions. The European Union’s European Regional Development Fund and the Bavarian State Ministry for Economic Affairs, Regional Development, and Energy, as well as the Upper Franconia Foundation, support the initiative.
