LIFE FORTURE | FORCE OF THE FUTURE
LIFE16 ENV/IT/000307
Summary
LIFE Force of the Future (FORTURE) is a project that began in October 2017, aimed at developing a sustainable manufacturing model for the production of ceramic tiles, with the support of the EU LIFE Programme.
Background
Although technological development and the introduction of new technologies have contributed to reducing the environmental impacts of the ceramic sector, the environmental variable has not yet been fully incorporated into production processes.
Specific Objectives
LIFE Force of the Future aims to solve the criticality due to the static nature of impact assessments based on time series and which prevent corrective actions on products and processes, and to facilitate the data collection data elaboration.
Main Actions
LIFE Force of the Future proposes to achieve the project's objectives by combining the results of ten specific actions, which will be developed over time according to the programme shown in the Gantt chart.
Expected Results
LIFE Force of the Future aims to achieve some tangible and quantifiable results after its implementation. Find out more!
LIFE Forture Consortium
The project consortium consists of a balanced team of complementary organisations, including a ceramic tile company, an engineering university and a management university.
