UK registered organisations can apply for grant funding for feasibility studies that develop new approaches to improve resource efficiency.

The aim of this Innovate UK (IUK) competition is to support UK materials and manufacturing organisations to become more resource efficient. Simultaneous demonstrations of how materials and manufacturing will become more resilient or technologically advanced are encouraged.

  • World class production
  • Longer in use and reuse

Up to £1 million has been allocated to fund feasibility projects. Funding will be in the form of a grant. Each project’s total costs must be between £50,000 and £100,000.

This competition is open to single applicants or collaborations. To lead a project or work alone an organisation must be a UK registered business of any size. Collaborators must be UK registered businesses of any size, academic institutions, charities / not-for-profit organisations, public sector organisations, or research and technology organisations (RTOs).
