The company Cebimat, a spin-off of the Universitat Jaume I located in Espaitec, has launched a laboratory specialising in the study of plastic biodegradation. The presentation ceremony was attended by the rector of the UJI, Eva Alcón, and UJI researchers from the Polymer and Advanced Materials Group (PIMA) and co-founders of the company Luis Cabedo and José Gámez. Also in attendance were the vice-rector for Research, Jesús Lancis; the vice-rector for Innovation, Transfer and Scientific Dissemination, David Cabedo, as well as members of the Cebimat team, research and technical staff of the UJI, companies and other invited entities.

Cebimat Lab S.L. is a technology-based company that emerged in 2021 as a spin-off of the research group Polymers and Advanced Materials of the UJI, very active in the field of plastics and sustainability with extensive experience in carrying out national and European scientific projects, industrial projects with local and multinational companies and performing outreach tasks. Cebimat is the acronym for the Centre for the Study of the Biodegradation of Materials and was created with the aim of becoming a reference centre for the industrial development of new sustainable products, characterised to be able to biodegrade in the natural environment or industrial composting, minimising the environmental impact produced by plastic waste.
