Expected outcomes include:

• New eco-innovative materials and furniture products: creation of durable and sustainable furniture elements using cellulose from plant waste and recycled paper.
• Sustainable production processes: development and implementation of low-impact manufacturing processes focused on resource efficiency and waste reduction.
• Circular economy models: application of circular economy principles in the furniture sector, promoting recycling, reuse, and end-of-life material recovery.
• Eco-design tools: development of tools and methods for integrating environmental sustainability into the furniture design process.
• Knowledge dissemination: sharing of project results through scientific publications, guides, workshops, and conferences.
• Positive environmental impact: reduction of the environmental footprint of the furniture sector, supporting the shift towards a greener economy.
• Competitive advantages for companies: acquisition of innovative skills and technologies, boosting competitiveness and sustainability in the market.
• Benefits for society: creation of new sustainable products and services with positive impacts on both quality of life and the environment.

The project aims to demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility of using waste-derived cellulose as a raw material in furniture design, opening new paths for a more sustainable and circular furniture industry.
