Description
Objectives

The project concerns investments in research and development related to plastics, rubber, intermediates and specialty chemicals.

The aim is to increase the promoter’s competitiveness and to expand the company’s business through the development of technology-driven processes and products.

Environmental aspects
Procurement

The R&D activities encompassed within this project will not materially change current R&D practices and will be carried out within existing facilities, making use of existing laboratories, pilot plants, testing facilities etc. Thus an EIA according to the EU Directive 97/11/EC, as amended by Directive 2003/35/EC is not required. Compliance of R&D activities with relevant EU environmental legislation will be verified during appraisal.

The promoter is a private company not operating in the Utilities sector, and is thus not covered by EU Directives on procurement. Procedures followed will be verified during appraisal.
