Research
We conduct research to develop sustainable technical solutions for our sector and to design indoor spaces in the best possible way. Therefore, we focus on aspects of sustainability and circular economy, health, safety, comfort and design. We use our expertise, our decades of experience, our modern infrastructure and draw on our large interdisciplinary network. In cooperative research projects, novel materials and products, innovative production techniques and technologies as well as testing methods are created.
Competencies
Our expertise meets the highest standards. As a result, we achieve excellent research results and ensure the transfer of innovations and new findings from science to industry. We are constantly improving and expanding our competences. This enables us to identify future challenges in good time and develop innovative solutions for our industry and thus for the interior space of the future.
Technologies
Using their scientific knowledge, our researchers develop innovative technologies to transform raw materials and semi-finished products into finished building products. Building products such as floor coverings are manufactured in a series of process steps. With our know-how, we develop alternative materials, semi-finished products, products and processes in cooperation with our partners to meet future requirements for healthy, sustainable and safe building products.
