Neue Materialien Bayreuth GmbH (NMB) develops innovative materials and processes for industrial practice. We are a non-university research institution that develops new material variants and the associated energy-efficient processing methods in the field of lightweight construction for plastics, metals and composites. In this way, we create sustainable solutions to optimize existing materials and production processes for specific applications.
The core feature is our state-of-the-art plant technology for industrial and laboratory-scale testing. We also offer a comprehensive range of services, such as life cycle assessment (LCA) during development and materials analysis / component testing using the latest methods and laboratory technology.
In addition to R&D work for industrial companies in direct cooperation or as part of publicly funded joint projects, we also undertake contract manufacturing for prototypes and small series as well as tool sampling.
We make targeted use of the synergy effects of an interdisciplinary exchange between our materials experts from the fields of plastics and metals. Based on our close cooperation with materials science departments at the University of Bayreuth, our project partners benefit from a technology transfer from basic research to applied development.
The results of this approach are quickly usable and marketable solutions, gained through application-oriented research and development “made by NMB”.
