Paper and Biorefinery Conference – Graz
Exciting News from the “Paper and Biorefinery Conference” in Graz!
We are thrilled to share that two of our founders recently attended the annual “Paper and Biorefinery conference” in Graz. This conference brings together international experts from the paper, and pulp value chain to discuss the critical questions that will shape the future of our industry.
The conference was filled with thought-provoking presentations and insightful discussions on the latest advancements and challenges in our field. It was inspiring to witness the exchange of knowledge and ideas among industry leaders, researchers, and professionals.
We were particularly fascinated by the talks on sustainable practices, innovation in paper production. These discussions reaffirmed our commitment to driving positive change and promoting sustainability within our industry.

TU Ideenwettbewerb 2021 / TU ideas contest 2021
We won second place in the TU ideas contest 2021 with the Pioneer Fund project CeraSleeve (Collaboration with Prof. Andrieu-Brunsen and Prof. Markus Biesalski).
