What: <\/strong>The New Biomateriality Lab<\/em> presents new Finnish biomaterials, mainly based on wood. All materials have been invented and produced in multidisciplinary research projects. The exhibition is coordinated by Aalto University\u2019s CHEMARTS collaboration and participating projects are DWoC, NoMa, Hiilinielu Designstudio and Trash2Cash. The main partners are Aalto University, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, Technical University of Tampere, Universities of Applied Sciences in Lahti and Tampere, University of Vaasa and Design Forum Finland, in collaboration with various companies, funded by Tekes and EU.More information can be found at: www.CelluloseFromFinland.fi<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

When talking about the future of Finland, biomaterials and the circular economy are a critical part of that discussion. Cellulose, which mainly comes from plants (also from bacteria and algae), is one of the most abundant materials found in nature. It is a structural component of plant cell walls, and, together with lignin and hemicellulose, forms the structure of wood. The combination of renewability, recyclability and tunability together with new end-use opportunities makes cellulose the potential super material of the future.<\/p>\n

Historically, wood cellulose has had a remarkable role in Finnish industry, though mainly for high volume and low value products. The annual growth of wood biomass in Finland is 104 million m3 and about one fifth of this is not brought into use. This equates to about four million additional tonnes of cellulose per year. If this additional tonnage could be refined into value-added cellulose products and if those products had an estimated price similar to that of cotton, then the value of that additional business for Finland could be worth five billion euros per year. However, we still need to closely monitor that we are using our precious forests in a smart and responsible way.<\/p>\n

The New Biomateriality Lab <\/em>displays some future materials based on cellulose. The ongoing collaboration between designers, architects, material scientists, engineers and business specialists aims to generate a new high-value industry. Through the combination of traditional large-scale and new start-up businesses, the Finnish cellulose ecosystem will be a strong player in the global market of the future.<\/p>\n

New Biomateriality Lab \u2013 Huomisen biomateriaalit\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Konsepti: New Biomateriality Lab esittelee uusia biomateriaaleja, joiden l\u00e4ht\u00f6kohtana on p\u00e4\u00e4osin puu. Materiaalit on kehitetty muotoilua ja materiaalitieteit\u00e4 yhdist\u00e4viss\u00e4 tutkimusprojekteissa. N\u00e4yttelyn koordinoi Aalto-yliopiston CHEMARTS -yhteisty\u00f6hanke ja mukana ovat projektit DWoC, NoMa, Hiilinielu Designstudio ja Trash2Cash. Kumppaneita ovat Aalto-yliopisto, Teknologian tutkimuskeskus VTT, Lahden ammattikorkeakoulu, Tampereen teknillinen yliopisto, Tampereen ammattikorkeakoulu, Vaasan yliopisto, Design Forum Finland ja lukuisat yritykset. Projektien p\u00e4\u00e4rahoittajat ovat Tekes ja EU.

Biomateriaalit ja kiertotalous ovat tulevaisuuden Suomen keskeisi\u00e4 menestystekij\u00f6it\u00e4. Yksi yleisimmist\u00e4 luonnon raaka-aineista on selluloosa, jota tuottavat sek\u00e4 kasvit ett\u00e4 er\u00e4\u00e4t bakteerit ja lev\u00e4t. Selluloosaa saadaan kasvisolujen sein\u00e4mist\u00e4, ja yhdess\u00e4 hemiselluloosan ja ligniinin kanssa se muodostaa puun rakenteen. Selluloosan uusiutuvuus, kierr\u00e4tett\u00e4vyys ja muokattavuus tekev\u00e4t siit\u00e4 tulevaisuuden mahdollisen supermateriaalin.<\/p>\n

Puu- ja paperiteollisuudella on ollut kautta historian merkitt\u00e4v\u00e4 rooli Suomen taloudessa. Tuotteet ovat olleet enimm\u00e4kseen suuren volyymin massatuotteita. Suomen puuston vuotuinen kasvu on noin 104 miljoonaa kuutiometri\u00e4, josta j\u00e4\u00e4 hy\u00f6dynt\u00e4m\u00e4tt\u00e4 viidennes eli nelj\u00e4 miljoonaa selluloosatonnia. Jos t\u00e4m\u00e4 m\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4 selluloosaa jalostettaisiin hinnaltaan puuvillaa vastaaviksi tuotteiksi, tuotannon arvo olisi viisi miljardia euroa vuodessa. Mets\u00e4 merkitsee kuitenkin muutakin kuin materiaalil\u00e4hdett\u00e4, joten sen tuottamat arvokkaat raaka-aineet pit\u00e4isi osata k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 viisaasti ja vastuullisesti, luontoa kunnioittaen.<\/p>\n

New Biomateriality Lab tuo esille materiaaleja, joiden l\u00e4ht\u00f6kohtana on selluloosa eri muodoissaan. Yhdist\u00e4m\u00e4ll\u00e4 muotoilijoiden, arkkitehtien, liiketoimintaosaajien ja materiaalitutkijoiden osaaminen on mahdollista lis\u00e4t\u00e4 selluloosan ja muiden uusiutuvien materiaalien k\u00e4ytt\u00f6\u00e4 erityisesti korkean lis\u00e4arvon tuotteissa. Samalla Suomeen syntyy uusi \u00a0biomateriaaleihin perustuva toimijaverkosto, joka on vahva tulevaisuuden ratkaisujen kehitt\u00e4j\u00e4 my\u00f6s maailmanlaajuisesti.<\/p>\n
