Innovation Award “Best CO₂ Utilisation 2021”

How to utilise CO₂? The nominees for the innovation award “Best CO₂ Utilisation 2021” have the answers!

First stage: From now until 14 February 2021

Producers and inventors of innovative products and technologies are invited to hand in a completed application form (closed!) and a leaflet or a two-page PDF about the product in English including printable digital pictures (300 dpi), which are free of use in our subsequent media publicity. The documents should explain the particular aspects of the innovation and when it was launched on the market. It is also necessary to submit a sample of the product (or a small material sample if the product is too unhandy).
