2023-09-06 09:46:39

Wallonia inaugurated this Tuesday in Frameries a new platform in the presence of Willy Borsus, Walloon Vice-President, and Thomas Dermine, Secretary of State for Recovery and Strategic Investments. “Remind Wallonia” is dedicated to fostering innovation in the mineral industry. It wants to be a hub for the recycling of minerals used in industry: concrete, clay, aggregates, etc.

This platform will notably bring together around fifteen mineral industries, universities and research centres, as well as the Walloon government. The Walloon Region has also released a budget of 13.5 million euros, included in the recovery plan. The private partners have injected 10 million euros into the project. This money should make it possible to set up seven research and development projects. Primary objective: to make Wallonia the “Mineral Valley” of North-Western Europe.
