Heimvaag AS har utviklet et byggeprodukt som kan utnytte urasjonelt trevirke og returtre, og l\u00f8sningen er n\u00e5 godt p\u00e5 vei i patenteringsprosessen med gode tilbakemeldinger.<\/p>\n<p>N\u00e5 sikter bedriften p\u00e5 \u00e5 bidra inn i konkrete innovasjonsprosjekter, som st\u00f8tter klyngens m\u00e5l om \u00f8kt ressursutnyttelse og b\u00e6rekraft.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Vi ser store synergier mellom v\u00e5r produktutvikling og klyngens fokus p\u00e5 teknologi, kompetanse og samarbeid.

En veldig interessant dag hvor hele verdikjeden var representert, der jeg nettopp erfarte nytten av klyngen som koplingsboks og kompetansebygger, sier Espen Heimdal, som mener mange av utfordringer som m\u00e5 l\u00f8ses, krever samarbeid.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; St\u00f8rre valgmuligheter innenfor byggeprodukter av returtre er kun en del av den st\u00f8rre omstillingen for hele verdikjeden, og det er nettopp her Norwegian Wood Cluster er posisjonert for solide fremskritt, sier Heimdal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spennende oppstartsbedrift<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Klyngeleder Berit Sanness \u00f8nsker Heimvaag velkommen som nytt medlem i Norwegian Wood Cluster.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Det er kj\u00e6rkomment \u00e5 f\u00e5 inn en oppstartsbedrift som bringer nye ideer og l\u00f8sninger inn i verdikjeden v\u00e5r.
