Meet Lien van der Schueren from Centexbel.

In the video below, Lien introduces Centexbel, the scientific and technical centre for the Belgian Textile industry, and their role in the BIOGEARS project.

Centexbel is mainly involved in the pilot scale filament extrusion of biobased materials: manufacturing both monofilaments as well as the finer multifilaments; optimising the extrusion processing conditions; and analysing the properties of the resulting filaments.
