BioComposites Centre & Mona Technology Transfer Centre: Bridging Discovery and Demonstration in Sustainable Materials
Bangor University’s BioComposites Centre, together with its pilot-scale Mona Technology Transfer Centre (TTC), offers external organisations a complete innovation ecosystem for the development and commercialisation of low-carbon, bio-based materials and green process technologies.
With a track record of industry collaboration across packaging, wood-based panels, construction, agriculture, and advanced manufacturing, these facilities provide a unique pathway from early-stage research through to product prototyping and market readiness.
