Marielle Henriksson

Marielle is a project manager and material researcher with expertise in biobased and synthetic polymeric materials, primarily composite materials such as biocomposites, nanocomposites and glued wood products. The material development includes processing, characterization of the materials structures and properties, and the relation between these. The research is applied and close to applications and includes gluing of wood, biobased adhesives, and biobased composites mainly for building, furniture and automotive applications.

Today Marielle manages a RISE-internal knowledge platform that gathers RISE’s competences on upscaling of biobased materials, to support our customers and research partners in the upscaling and demonstration of new biobased materials. She is also involved in the cooperation between the forest and wood industry and RISE where she is coordinating the competence area Durability and material development. She also manages the BioInnovation projects 100 % fossil free construction boards and elements and Reflows - Circular biobased products from protein-rich brewery waste streams.

Since 2021, Marielle is the chairperson in the Swedish standardization committee TK162 Lim och limningsteknik and participates in CEN TC 193 SC1 Adhesives for wood and derived timber products.
