B4Plastics' biodegradable polyamides and polyesters address a real sustainability issue. This innovative and clean technology has great impact potential in Flanders and beyond. The jury could highly appreciate the thorough engineering of materials at the molecular level.

The first Cleantech Hero Mobility is known. And once again, the jury was almost unanimous. In these times when concern for the climate goes hand in hand with the search for sustainable non-fossil energy, hydrogen-powered heavy transport is a big step in the right direction. E-Trucks Europe may therefore call itself a true Cleantech Hero Mobility.

The success story of innovative cleantech companies is continuing. This is demonstrated in the Cleantech report published by Cleantech Flanders. The most recent data show that not only is the number of cleantech companies increasing, but with 1.32 billion euros in investments and almost 2,000 new employees, our cleantech is increasingly putting itself on the map, both nationally and internationally.

To increase awareness about cleantech solutions, Cleantech Flanders introduced the first ‘Cleantech Heroes’ in 2021.  Flemish companies within the network of Cleantech Flanders who develop and market innovative cleantech solutions can register to be selected as Cleantech Hero within their domain.
