Fraunhofer Research Institution for Materials Recycling and Resource Strategies IWKS

Fraunhofer IWKS stands for the responsible use of resources. Recovering valuable materials from a product cycle and reintroducing them into a new cycle - that is the goal of research. The energy transition, the mobility transition and digitization in particular are accompanied by an increased demand for specific raw materials, without which the respective technological functionalities cannot be realized.

Together with industrial partners, researchers are developing efficient processes and technologies for the responsible use of the earth's resources.

Accessibility in times of Corona

The Corona pandemic poses major challenges for all of us. In order to slow down the spread of the virus and protect everyone's health, most of the Fraunhofer IWKS team is now working from a home office. There, we are available for you by phone or e-mail and try to reduce the restrictions on project work to a minimum.

We thank you for your understanding and look forward to a continued successful cooperation.

Stay healthy.
