About the project
The three-year FIBRIX project aims to unlock the potential of Europe’s untapped forest biomass including logging residues, small-diameter wood, and insect-damaged trees and demonstrates an innovative conversion protocol for heterogeneous biomass. The initiative will advance bio-based materials and strengthen Europe’s circular bioeconomy by turning low-value side streams into innovative filament applications.
Impact of the project:
In the longer term, FIBRIX is expected to strengthen rural economies, improve resource efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create new industrial opportunities for circular, bio-based materials in Europe.

Spinverse’s role
Spinverse supported the consortium throughout the highly competitive CBE JU proposal process, where only 3 out of 45 proposals were selected. Spinverse’s bioeconomy experts helped to shape the consortium, strengthen the proposal and ensured that the key success factors were addressed clearly and convincingly.
Spinverse also supported FIBRIX in their Grant Agreement Process.
Spinverse provided essential support in consortium building and proposal development, ensuring that all key success factors were thoroughly addressed. Through active dialogue with the coordinator and the consortium, our scientific vision was translated into a successful proposal leading to the funding of the FIBRIX project.
