CICLICOM is in the construction phase of a digital platform that will serve as a meeting point for the agents in the sector.
The innovation ecosystem for the circularity of composite materials and complex plastics, CICLICOM, led by the GAIKER Technology Centre, a member of the Basque Research & Technology Alliance, BRTA, is advancing in its development and is currently in the construction phase of a digital platform that will serve as a meeting point for agents in the sector.
This platform will facilitate the matching and geolocation of supply and demand related to plastic waste and the technologies required for its treatment, by integrating the infrastructures, services and capacities of various organisations. The aim is to promote the creation of new business opportunities, technology transfer and cooperation between companies, technology centres and public and private entities. Furthermore, the process of launching an extension campaign is being initiated with the aim of bringing in new organisations that can provide additional capacities and services. This expansion seeks to enrich the development of technological solutions and generate new business opportunities.
More about CICLICOM
CICLICOM was launched in 2024 with the aim of integrating the key actors of the national production sector in the field of composite materials and complex plastics and in the areas related to technologies for the treatment, recycling and use of waste and products at the end of their life cycle. Through the creation of this ecosystem, the aim is to provide the business sector with access to state-of-the-art knowledge and technology, creating and providing an interconnected network of infrastructures and services. The aim is to offer companies an environment in which they can evaluate technologies before making major investments in their production processes, generating synergies between different agents in the ecosystem to improve efficiency in the management of plastic waste and develop technological solutions that lead to an effective circular economy of materials.
VALORIZA Environmental Services, the National Association of Plastic Recyclers (ANARPLA), the Basque Environment Cluster (ACLIMA) and the GAIKER, AIMPLAS and CIDAUT technology centres are working on this initiative, which is financed by the CDTI (Centre for Industrial Technological Development) within the Innovation Ecosystems Programme.
