it4ip s.a. wins prize for technological innovation in Wallonia (Belgium)
At a ceremony held in Namur on Monday, 12th of October, it4ip was awarded the Prize for Technological Innovation in Wallonia in the "spin off" category, for its first worldwide manufacturing of polyimide track etched membrane in roll stock and its excellence in nanoporous membranes.
Developed at the University of Louvain (Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, Wallonia), the manufacturing of these polyimide membranes has been successfully scaled-up to large size production. In parallel, a new manufacturing process has been developed for the manufacturing of ultra precise nanopores in different polymers.
The manufacturing of these new membranes is realized in the it4ip plant of Seneffe (Belgium, Wallonia).
The applications of these micro- and nano- porous media is wide: purification of radio-active liquids, ultra purification of water, control of nano flow in biosensors, PEM in fuel cells, diagnostic...
The award ceremony was attended by numerous personalities from the worlds of Belgian politics, banks, invests, science and business.
Among the other winners was AGC (ASAHI GLASS CORPORATION) and, nominated, SOLVAY and GSK.

Spin-off de l'UCL créée en 2006, la société it4ip a développé une technologie unique et brevetée, appelée « track etched », pour la production de membranes aux propriétés exceptionnelles. Ces membranes consistent en un film fin et poreux qui filtre gaz et liquides, et le savoir-faire réside notamment dans le contrôle de la taille et du nombre de perforations qui y sont créées.
