Canadian Clean Technologies for a lower environmental impact of your company’s processes and products

The Embassy of Canada in Italy, in conjunction with the Délégation du Québec in Italy, is bringing to Italy some of the excellence of Canadian cleantech in several sectors of the Circular Economy.
In this edition of Ecomondo, we will cover a large spectrum of the bioeconomy sector with companies producing bio-based polymers and fibers, nano cellulose additive that significantly enhance strength and thermals stability of materials, bacteria and enzyme-based products for the protection of our ecosystem, bio-based coating technologies for urban infrastructure as well as clean technology solutions, applied to soil stabilization, soil treatments and containments. In the water sector, we will showcase the next generation of ultra filtration technology for wastewater, and last but not least, we will introduce new application of AI in the waste handling sector.
