BIO insulation materials for Enhancing the Energy performance of Buildings
BIO4EEB is a project co-funded by the European Commission which kicked off at the beginning of 2023. BIO4EEB solutions and products aim at uplifting the generic bio-based material use and qualifying their application at a circular economy approach for creating a much greener EU building industry.
What is BIO4EEB?
Within the next four years, this 8.8M€ innovation project will close the increasing gap of insulation material shortage caused by the regular growing demand. BIO4EEB is targeting to boost the use of available bio-based qualified materials as alternative solutions.
Key objectives of the BIO4EEB project
BIO4EEB will support the construction performance of residential buildings extraordinary at all three hierarchical levels of construction parts simultaneously (building, component, material) by creating an amplified environmental impact and reducing volatile organic compounds emissions.
BIO4EEB will apply non-hazardous bio-based material such as Posidonia and various bio-based foams to develop and to proof the marketability of smart components for external and internal use as material application, pre-fabricated panels or windows.
