News and Events
In this third edition we focus on social and inclusive projects. Talks will focus on circularity, co-design and sustainable manufacturing as tools to achieve social innovation within communities. In addition, we will coincide with the closing of our campaign Revalue your waste - second edition! To learn more, click here.
The BioLaMer project seeks to address two significant global challenges, such as the increasing food waste challenge and petroleum plastics pollution, by developing an innovative technology/design/route to produce biopolymers and added-value bioplastic products from low-grade food waste.

TransfoLAB BCN has joined forces with CoLab House from Greece and Sosped-säätiö from Finland to explore the benefits on the well-being from designing and making with creative reuse and circular economy. Funded through the Erasmus+ program. More details!
