Girls' Day at the HSZG: Natural Fiber Center

At the HSZG's Natural Fiber Center, interested schoolgirls are shown, among other things, how we can live and produce with what nature provides in the future and how we can protect our environment in the process.

Begin 28. April 2022 - 10:00 Uhr
End 28. April 2022 - 12:00 Uhr

The Natural Fiber Center at Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences is busy researching how we can live and produce with what nature provides in the future and how we can protect our environment in the process.

Plants play a central role here

We can use plants to generate energy, such as biogas, or produce great products, such as biodegradable disposable tableware or components for trains. Our researchers will explain how this all works on Girls' Day from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Natural Fiber Center.

You will also learn what fungi feed on and how we can use their unique abilities as helpers for recycling purposes and the utilization of otherwise unusable materials in the future. You will also be there when our researchers show you how waste is sorted in a sorting plant and learn from them which steps are necessary for the successful recycling of plastics.

Our offer is rounded off with an exciting insight into our research into microplastics in the soil.

Our researchers will be happy to answer your questions about our research, as well as which subjects they particularly enjoyed at school and what you need to study to do research with us.

When: 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

Where: Natural Fiber Center LaNDER³, Hochwaldstraße 14, 02763 Zittau
