On Lower Saxony Day, June 12, Fraunhofer WKI will present its latest research on bio-based adhesives at the Braunschweig Mile. A central goal of the research is to promote the responsible use of our planet’s resources. Bio-based adhesives are a key technology for bonding materials and conserving finite resources. This research makes products for the construction, furniture, and transportation sectors more environmentally friendly and recyclable. Please stop by and learn about the potential that mycelium-based materials offer for sustainable technologies.

“LuminousNetworks” focuses on fungal mycelium as a material. As a sustainable and functional material, mycelium is already a game-changer in biomaterial development. Thanks to the work of artist Malte Taffner, who is participating in the project, fungi are also being seen in a whole new light. Join us on September 24 at phaeno Wolfsburg to learn exciting details about the project and the intersection of science and art.
