R + D

IN OUR DNA

Research + Development

Our R+D department is continuously exploring new projects. Always with the ultimate goal of launching new proposals with commercial application in the market.

We work as a team with numerous technology centers, companies and universities.

Introducing Orloga R&D

Committed to the environment

At Orloga we are committed to the sustainability of our planet and we want to be an active part of the change. For this reason, our R+D projects seek both the reduction and the recovery of waste.

Our goal is to launch new industries and sustainable applications in the fields of bioeconomy, circular economy and new materials.

Orloga. Bioeconomia

Bioeconomy

Faced with the use of non-renewable raw materials, the bioeconomy advocates the use of renewable materials from the forest, the soil, the sea…

We want to generate a chain reaction that protects our environment through innovative ideas in the industry.

Circular economy

The Circular Economy is a system for making the most of resources whose pillar is the use of four “Rs”: reduce, reuse, repair and recycle.

Go to the source of the problem to offer sustainable industrial solutions.

New materials

We work on the development of new materials with novel properties and applications, through new technologies resulting from advances in chemistry, physics, engineering and materials science. We industrialize and create materials with high added value, more functional and sustainable.

Our projects

These are some of the R+D projects in which we develop, both alone and in collaboration with other companies and institutions. Projects that add value to society and with a clear vocation for industrial implementation.

Innovative
projects

Innovative projects that respond to emerging needs of society and consumers, generating more economic value and leadership.

Disruptive
projects

We introduce completely new products or services in the market. An innovation model that revolutionizes the sector and its market.

Incremental
projects

We increase the value of existing applications by improving them, adding new features, or perfecting those already present.

Projects of
industrial application

We implement technologies in the validation phase and apply them in new processes with the aim of manufacturing new products with high added value.
