PROJECT FINAL CONFERENCE 

at “G. Fini” Auditorium – Via Bellinzona 27/a – MODENA – ITALY

 ECO-INNOVATE AN INDUSTRIAL PROCESS WITH THE SUPPORT OF A EUROPEAN PROJECT

 HIGH PRESSURE RESINATION SYSTEM 

The purpose of the conference is to illustrate the results that have been achieved within the scope of the European project “Life HPRS” (High Pressure Resination System) and to stimulate the exchange of technological know-how between those involved in the project and companies residing within the Emilia-Romagna region. The project, coordinated by IMAL, a company based in Modena, that has been operating in the wood-based panels industry for over 40 years, has designed and manufactured a mixing process based on innovative resin application technology , capable of radically reducing resin loads, attenuating the impact on the environment, cutting power costs as well as cutting the costs for the entire wood-based panel production process.

The event is free!
