About

We specialize in material characterization and reuse. We have fully equipped research platforms. https://research.imt-nord-europe.fr/platforms/

Description — IMT Nord Europe · CERI Matériaux & Procédés

IMT Nord Europe hosts a research center dedicated to materials characterization and sustainable reuse, the Centre de Recherche sur les Interfaces (CERI Matériaux & Procédés), affiliated with the LGCgE laboratory (ULR 4515). Our teams combine scientific expertise in geopolymers, calcined clays, low-carbon binders, biobased materials, and circular construction materials with a strong commitment to industrial transfer and eco-innovation.

We provide access to fully equipped research platforms covering the full characterization chain — from raw material analysis to durability assessment of innovative binders and composites — enabling rigorous validation of new formulations at both laboratory and pilot scale.

Our incubation offer is built on three pillars:

  • Scientific expertise in material formulation, characterization, and life-cycle optimization;

  • Cutting-edge infrastructure, detailed at research.imt-nord-europe.fr/platforms;

  • A cross-disciplinary network connecting academia, industry, and regional innovation ecosystems (Hauts-de-France).

We actively support start-ups and research spin-offs working on sustainable construction materials, waste valorization, and the circular economy of mineral resources.
