New life for construction waste wood
In Finland, almost all waste wood from construction ends up being burned, even though it could play a major role in the development of ecological growing media. New research shows that steam-treated waste wood can replace peat as a growing medium and offers promising results in plant germination and root growth.

We might feel love in our fingertips –– but did the Ancient Mesopotamians?
A multidisciplinary team of researchers studied a large body of texts to find out how people in the ancient Mesopotamian region (within modern day Iraq) experienced emotions in their bodies thousands of years ago, analysing one million words of the ancient Akkadian language from 934-612 BC in the form of cuneiform scripts on clay tablets.
New origami packaging technology creates sustainable and eye-catching alternatives to conventional packing materials
Origami packaging enables completely new properties for cartonboard, making it an excellent alternative to, for example, plastic and expanded polystyrene in packaging. The aesthetics of the material have also garnered interest from designers.
