VTT has taken a brave step forward in the development of sustainable regenerated cellulosic fiber technologies. In 2017, the pilot wet-spinning facility was installed at the Bioruukki piloting center in Espoo, Finland. In the first trials, carbamate cellulose fibers were produced from dissolving pulp. VTT is providing the wet-spinning facilities as a platform for developing environmental friendly fiber spinning technologies for the industry and research projects.
