Circular Products Lab
Our Circular Products Lab provides access to advanced infrastructure to test, validate, and optimize circular solutions.
We are pleased to share these facilities for co-creation with companies and research institutions.

The themes of the Circular Lab
Biobased materials
We develop and test sustainable, biobased alternatives to conventional raw materials. Through pressing, moulding, laminating, and coating, we determine the most suitable mono- or hybrid material for your application.
Lifetime extension
We extend product lifetimes through surface treatments, reversible coatings, and durability testing. In this way, we help companies use raw materials more efficiently and reduce their environmental impact.
Our most frequently used equipment
Salt-spray test
Metals are exposed to salt mist in an artificial environment to determine how weather conditions affect the corrosion behaviour of a product.
Condensation test
Coatings are exposed to an environment with 100% humidity to assess how prolonged moisture exposure influences corrosion behaviour.
UV Weathering test
A UV sunlight simulation or weathering test aims to accelerate the damaging effects of sunlight in combination with temperature and humidity.
Spray cabinet
The spray cabinet enables the uniform application and testing of resin systems for composites and coatings under controlled temperature and air circulation.
