Natural solutions against fossil addiction

The LIGNOFUN project aims to transform underutilized lignin, a natural, plant-based polymer that is responsible for the strength and resilience of plants, from paper production into a valuable raw material. The 18 partners involved in the project are working together to develop bio-based products that can be used industrially, while contributing to reducing the EU’s dependence on fossil fuels.

The first phase of the project focuses on improving the industrial processability of lignin, while the second phase will produce and test specific, high-value product prototypes, such as cosmetics, body care products, adhesives, and composite materials.
