Description
The Scientific and Technical partner offering support to companies in the field of Food Technologies, Biomass Valorization (Extraction), Materials and Environment.
CELABOR’s staff is constituted of a multidisciplinary team of some forty scientists (doctors, engineers, graduates and technicians) who mean to develop a lasting relationship with you based on trust.
Our main missions : • Encourage technological innovation and the development of new products or processes through research and development. • Meet the needs for analyses and tests through its high performing and responsive ISO 17025 accredited laboratory. • Help resolve problems and/or disputes (linked to the production process, failure of quality control, etc.) through the activity of consultancy and expert appraisal.
FOOD TECHNOLOGIES NUTRITION : characterisation of your products, in-depth analysis of nutrients or contaminants, full assistance with your research and development projects
EXTRACTION : unique technological platform in Wallonia boasting an ATEX zone, test hall constituted of extraction machinery, high performing laboratory and experienced multi-disciplinary team. Extraction processes with a “green” orientation, preparation of natural plant ingredients for the food supplements, cosmetics and phytotherapy markets, etc.
MATERIALS : a set of skills regarding the materials properties : quality control, expertise, characterization on paper, packaging and textiles. A technological platform focused on biobased materials (nano fibers, cellulosic fibers, paper recycling) and their applications on paper, packaging and textiles (functionalization etc.).
ENVIRONMENT : a set of skills in the specific fields of water and solid waste, and also technical and scientific support for the research and development of technologies and/or products.
