CALIMERO’s Data collection from industry current practices: state-of-the-art and identification of gaps
Data collection protocol and template for the environmental, social and economic aspects of a number of bio-based sectors. It has been also identified current sources of pollution and resource use, their total costs, and data gaps. The sectors chosen for data collection include bio-chemicals, pulp and paper, textile, woodworking and construction.
EFFECTIVE's summary of LCA, LCC and s-LCA
The report describes the findings of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), which was integrated by Cost (LCC) and Social investigation (S-LCA). The assessment focused on 6 new biobased large consumer products, namely carpet tiles for construction made of bio-based Nylon 6, bike pants made of bio-based Nylon 6, swimsuit made of bio-based Nylon 6, carpet tiles for construction made of bio-based Nylon 6.9, film for food packaging application made of bio-based Nylon 6.9, and film for non-food packaging application made of bio-based Polyester.
HEREWEAR’s policy input brief, preliminary version
This deliverable presents the preliminary version of the policy input brief of the HEREWEAR project. The content contains the findings and lessons learned from HEREWEAR regarding how to make the transition from the current textile sector to a textile sector that fully embraces the circular concept, uses bio-based materials and relies on the latest digital tools for efficient small-scale and local manufacturing in the EU.
EFFECTIVE's analysis of relevant standards
The deliverable includes an overview of the main standards applicable to EFFECTIVE’s bio-based materials and products, with a specific focus on the textile value chain. It addresses the main characteristics of each standard, its applicability potential to the project, and identifies gaps that can be covered by future standardization activities.
EFFECTIVE's report on the additional markets for the developed bio-based materials
The report describes the replicability studies and trials performed in the project to pave the way for the future applications of the developed biobased monomers, polymers, and biomaterials into market sectors different from the ones primarily targeted by the project.
EFFECTIVE's results obtained out of surveys and interviews on the biobased products
The Deliverable assesses potential social acceptance issues toward the future market uptake of the biobased product prototypes developed within the project.
