The ExtraBark final event presents the results of three years of research on the valorization of wood bark. It highlights the opportunities offered by this still underutilized resource to develop biobased solutions and strengthen the circularity of the wood sector through new applications and collaborations.
The ExtraBark final event brings together businesses, researchers, and bioeconomy stakeholders to discuss the results of three years of cross-border research dedicated to wood bark valorization. This often overlooked resource is explored for its potential in developing new biobased applications.
The day will showcase the scientific and technical advances of the project, along with their implementation prospects in various fields, including plant protection, wood protection, and residue valorization. Participants will also have the opportunity to engage with project experts and delve deeper into the results through dedicated thematic tables.
By focusing on transforming an underused resource into high-value raw materials, this event illustrates the principles of the circular economy applied to the wood sector and bioeconomy. It also aims to foster the emergence of new projects, partnerships, and valorization opportunities stemming from research.
The ExtraBark project, coordinated by Valbiom, is supported by the Interreg Grande Région programme and contributes to the development of innovative solutions for a more efficient use of biomass resources.
