Projects
Wood K plus carries out its research work almost exclusively in the form of projects. The COMET programme with the approved K1 centre until 2030 forms the basis for all the other numerous projects that Wood K plus is working on.
The COMET Centre (K1) of Kompetenzzentrum Holz GmbH (Wood K plus) entitled ‘WOOD – transition to a sustainable bioeconomy’ is funded by the BMIMI (Federal Ministry for Innovation, Mobility and Infrastructure), BMWET (Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs, Energy and Tourism) and the co-financing provinces of Carinthia, Lower Austria and Upper Austria as part of COMET – Competence Centres for Excellent Technologies (see Funding projects). The COMET programme is managed by the FFG (www.ffg.at/comet).
COMET is the red-white-red programme of science and industry to support application-oriented cutting-edge research. It creates highly qualified jobs and promotes young scientists in the state. In the COMET competence centres, companies work together with research partners, enabling the direct transfer of new knowledge into marketable products, services and processes.

Comet Center (K1): „WOOD – transition to a sustainable bioeconomy
From a scientific and technological perspective, the future challenges of the bioeconomy are seen as (1) the holistic and cascading utilisation of renewable raw materials, (2) the increasing demands on the functionality and properties of materials and products and (3) new process technologies that take into account the aspects of the circular economy, including recycling.
