Definition Eco-innovation is any innovation that reduces the use of natural resources and decreases the release of harmful substances across the whole life-cycle* * according to ECO Innovation Observatory

Austrian Example
• Polymer made of sunflower hulls , starch
and lactic acid • Usable for injection molding and extrusion Application: Production of injection-molded parts, e.g. containers • Material can be processed with the same
technologies and machines as for conventional materials

Pellenc has significantly contributed to efforts to increase recovery rates through efficient waste management techniques. Veolia recently purchased four machines for one of its commercial and industrial waste treatment centres. The machines have contributed to obtaining a 50% of recovery rate, allowing the centre to become one of the most efficient in France.

German Example
Celitement has led to the development of alternative products to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), that are based on SiO2 and CaO containing standard raw material. While it has many of the attributes of OPC, Celitement also has the benefits of lower energy demands and reduced CO2 emissions.

The Challenge
ECO Innovation have to outperform
existing solutions !!

Towards a Macro-regional Approach
Systematic Macro-regional approach to be implemented Mutual knowledge about Smart Specialisation Strategies
of Alpine Regions – Where the regions focus at? – Potential for synergies
Synchronisation of regional support schemes among regions – Money is available through ERDF
Missing critical mass due to lack of transregional cooperation possibilities – Cross-boarder cooperation is NOT really facilitated
