This was the “Long Night of Research” 2024
NaKu was again involved in the “Long Night of Research” in 2024
The “Long Night of Research” attracted an impressive 24 science enthusiasts across the country on May 2024, 170.000. With its 270 venues and around 2.800 interactive stations, it is considered the most extensive science communication event in Austria.
As part of this event, NaKu presented itself with an information stand on the subject of bioplastics in the Technology and Research Center (TFZ) Wiener Neustadt. The audience showed great interest in all aspects of bioplastics - from production to the circular economy to the highly topical area of recycling. Around 300 visitors at our information stand had the opportunity to find out comprehensively about the latest developments and to directly experience and test the innovative NaKu products made from bioplastics.
For NaKu, it has always been a central concern to spread knowledge and information about bioplastics. It gives us great pleasure to see the consistently high level of interest in this topic - across all age groups. It is particularly gratifying to see how visitors are amazed to see that bioplastics offer a sustainable alternative to conventional petroleum-based plastics. Many are surprised to learn that there are already viable products that are not only environmentally friendly, but can also compete with traditional plastic products in quality and functionality.
