Woolly Pot has the goal of replacing the fossil based plastic pots in Norwegian horticulture and agriculture with compostable pots made of downgraded wool.

Within the project ByHav, led by NIVA, Bioregion Institute shall map opportunities for promoting and securing biological diversity through nature-positive solutions for our coastal ecosystem.

At Bioregion Institute, we believe that (alive) mycelium-based building materials are a promising alternative to traditional building materials. They are eco-friendly, lightweight, durable, self-healing and have excellent insulation properties.

Lerøy Ocean Forest vision is to achieve more efficient recycling of the unexploited resources in the environments surrounding our fish farms, absorb CO2 and create biomass from species lower down the food chain, thereby reducing the environmental footprint of aquaculture.

Norgesmøllene is one of Norways most important flour mills and care deeply about minimizing waste in their value chain. As a member, they have commissioned Bioregion institute to explore how low value biowaste can be used in high value materials and products.

We are developing the next generation of surfacing for playgrounds, a fossil-free alternative in symbiosis with nature. Present-day playgrounds surfaces are made of synthetic rubber, which release harmful microplastics into our water systems and food chain.

With Kaihagen, we want to show the variety of edible plants that can grow in our climate. We want to inspire people to grow their own food, which reduces one's carbon footprint.

Shift Plastic primary objective is to create sustainable circular value chains for handling plastics in the fisheries and aquaculture sector.

To make aquaculture more sustainable and ready for stricter emission requirements, sludge handling solutions need to be increasingly adopted by the industry.
