AlgiFoam: the story of a rising foam
Researchers from IMT Mines Alès have developed an innovative, ecological and biodegradable material: AlgiFoam. The production methods based on expanded biopolymer beads have brought it closer to meeting industrial requirements and offer greater shaping possibilities. This project is rapidly expanding and will soon give rise to a start-up. Here is a closer look at how this exploratory concept traveled from the lab to luxury display cases.
