BIO4EEB Project

BIO insulation materials for Enhancing the Energy performance of Buildings

The BIO4EEB project aims to develop a portfolio of bio-based insulation solutions in the form of Posidonia panels and fibers, complex polyelectrolytes, PLA and bio-polyurethane, bio-based windows and finally a prefabricated façade element which aggregates these different materials. It promotes technologies to accelerate and steer digital and green transitions through human-centred innovation in the building sector. Furthermore, it promotes the well-being of users and the impact of renovation in the life cycle of buildings by considering using natural sources.

The project considers various building typologies and its solutions will be applied in five real-life pilot sites and three virtual pilot sites. These sites have been strategically chosen to cover a large set of renovation scenarios with different buildings and climates. The project will develop renovation packages and conduct replicability studies to facilitate their integration on the largest scale possible.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement no. 101091967.
