ECOPUR

HOW CAN YOU IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF MATTRESS PROTECTORS FOR THE MEDICAL SECTOR WHILE ADDRESSING MORE STRINGENT SANITARY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSTRAINTS?

GreenWin presents ECOPUR :

The ECOPUR project aims to create polyurethane coating for synthetic textiles in
accordance with future environmental and sanitary legislation and anticipate future
production norms.


Today, the process of manufacturing coatings for use in the making of, amongst other
things, mattress protectors (medical sector), requires the use of organic substances
that could be replaced by alternatives that are more respectful of the environment.


The ECOPUR project aims to enable the production of mattress protectors using this
new polyurethane coating technique.

Les « + » :

  • Greater respect for the environment.
  • Techniques that are more respectful towards workers and users (end-users = patients).
  • Future developments geared towards new markets.

Project supported by the following consortium:

  • Project sponsor: Sioen Fabrics
  • The company: Sioen Fabrics; Interco
  • CRA: Centexbel
  • Universities and Higher Education Institutions ULg - CERM / - CHEMENG
