About the project
The SHAPE ecosystem led by Mirka concentrates on four areas ins ustainable material solutions in production; repair, reuse and remanufacturing solutions; boosting circularity; and intelligence throughout value chains. The project creates an opportunity for the whole ecosystem to develop new innovative remanufacturing solutions, create new jobs and strengthen the competitiveness of the Finnish industry in the coming years.
Impact of the project:
Mirka’s surface finishing solutions and the SHAPE ecosystem aim together to decrease the carbon footprint of the European industry by 100 Mt, creating export opportunities worth several billion for the Finnish industry. The total investment of Mirka, Business Finland and the Finnish industry in developing net carbon negative solutions will be around €200 m during the next five years.
