Open infrastructure

Our database allows you to find open access research, development and test facilities for biobased and circular plastics, and to contact the facilities directly. The database is structured in technology areas and more specific technologies, which can be filtered to narrow your scope. You can also search the database directly using keywords, or select a facility on the map.

For personal support to find the infrastructure you need, contact one of our R&D Facility Brokers.
