Two CEP innovation projects will receive public funding

November 16th 2020

The collaborative innovation projects DIGI-REC 4.0 and PolySensor 4.0, driven by the Spanish Plastics Center (CEP) In collaboration with several partners of the cluster, they have been selected to receive grants to support Innovative Business Groups for 2020 from the Ministry of Industry.

The objective of these subsidies is to improve the situation and competitiveness of SMEs.

The project DIGI REC 4.0, in which CEP, ITAINNOVA, Zatec and CITSALP participate, its main objective is to increase the use of recycled materials by the injectors, guaranteeing the same quality requirements of the client, with the use of digital techniques that allow knowing which is the maximum allowable amount of recycled material that the product and the process are capable of accepting from the moment a product is designed. The budget for this project is € 180.793.

The project PolySensor 4.0, In which GAIKER, Analysis and Simulation, Larrañaga Plásticos together with CEP participate, its objective is to develop an advanced sensor material that provides functionalization to products, investigating their integration and application in specific market environments (automotive, transport, industry, sport, textile). The budget for this project is € 205.722.

All CEP members are eligible for these grants, so those companies that have an innovation project in mind only have to contact the CEP to help them develop it.
