• How can businesses better manage the flow of information in the green transition?


    Within the ReShare project, researchers have collaborated with nine companies in the manufacturing and construction industries. The aim has been to investigate how companies collect, manage and use information on sustainability requirements in the product realization process. The study, led by Paraskeva Wlazlak, Senior Lecturer at JTH, has also looked at what challenges exist and what can be improved. The ReShare research project is part of GRACE, a strategic research programme.
  • "We are extremely committed to sustainability"


    The lighting company Fagerhult, one of the 11 industrial partners in the research programme GRACE, has set tough targets for its extensive climate work. A shining example is the best-selling ceiling luminaire - now made from recycled cardboard!
  • "It's crazy — the machine graveyards must go!"


    Vast amounts of functioning production equipment are sitting unused at industrial companies that choose to buy new to keep up with the rapid development.—We have to build machines that meet both today's and future needs, says PhD student Filip Skärin.
  • "Collaboration helps us to be at the forefront!"


    The growing company Thule's products for an active outdoor life are seen all over the world. But it is in Småland's Hillerstorp that the company will develop tomorrow's products — in collaboration with the research program GRACE.
  • "It's about climate, economy - and the future!"


    Ahmed Amana is the doctoral student who will help the industry get a grip on all the new knowledge required for the transition to a more circular economy.
    For example, how are different materials affected by being reused - and what are the costs of different circular alternatives in production?

  • "I am amazed when I see the same problem come up again and again."


    Surely it would be nice if we didn't have to repeat old mistakes? Rohith Areth Koroth is inspired by the idea of ​​a technical platform that gathers knowledge from the entire value chain. In this way, the development of new products can be done in a sustainable way - environmentally, economically and socially. As a PhD student in GRACE, he has the chance.
