Eurecat, at the cutting edge of plastronics
A recent article published in Interempresas.net explains the importance of plastronics and specially refers to the Eurecat pilot plant located close to our park.
With more than 650 people in 11 centers throughout Catalonia, the Eurecat technology center aims to be a provider of innovative technology to help companies, especially SMEs, innovate and be more competitive, acting as a bridge between the world of applied research and the economic fabric.
One of these 11 centers is located right next to the Barcelona Synchrotron Park (BSP). It is one of the largest Eurecat centers and concentrates a large part of the industrial innovation, a precious opportunity for BSP’s companies. This center houses, among other services, a plastronics pilot plant, the first of these characteristics in Europe, which makes this emerging technology available to companies, after an investment of more than 1.5 million euros and the creation of 10 new jobs.
Plastronics, which combines printed electronics and the hybridization of electronic components with traditional processes of transformation of plastic such as injection, allows the creation of new processes and products of interest to the automotive, aeronautical, consumer electronics sectors or the medical and sports industry.
