Introduction to ISOBIO and Welcome to the Survey
The ISOBIO project offers a radical approach to natural construction materials at scale – delivering significant social, environmental and financial benefits.
ISOBIO will develop novel bio-based insulation materials for use in new and retrofit construction, which have added functionality allowing them to be readily adopted at industrial scale. For more details please refer to the project website http://isobioproject.com/
A key component in the success of the ISOBIO project is successful engagement with stakeholders at all levels. This will be achieved through a survey of needs and interests and a series of stakeholder workshops scheduled to align with the developments and progression of the ISOBIO project aims.
We therefore thank you for agreeing to take part in this survey. Your responses are key to the successful engagement of stakeholders within the ISOBIO project, and in ensuring the success of the workshops.
We hope you will be able to attend the first ISOBIO Science and Technology Workshop, aimed at the academic and research community, on the 4th February 2016 at the University of Rennes. The outline agenda is as follows:
• Introduction to ISOBIO project
• Aims of project
• Research techniques used
• Preliminary results
• Future directions
Please supply your details at the end of the survey in order to register your interest in attending the workshop.
The remaining four workshops will cover the themes of environment and LCA issues (aimed at industry and producers), skills and standards (aimed at the supply chain), solutions and markets (aimed at industry and end users) and policy and lessons learnt (aimed at EU actors, policy makers and European associations).
If you require any further information please contact H.Cornwell@bath.ac.uk.
