Lightweight Membership programme

Lightweight Member Programme is an industry-driven network and research program. As a member, you get a unique network of large and small companies as well as universities and institutes active in lightweight technology.

The use of lightweight constructions and materials is increasing in several industries. Lightweight often makes products cheaper to use and transport or easier to handle. Today we see the development of lightweight constructions in, for example, vehicles, aircraft, marine, workshop, construction, energy and infrastructure.

Lightweight also plays a major role in increasing efficiency and lowering the environmental impact – demands that have an ever-greater impact on competitiveness both locally and globally.

Two parts – a whole

Lightweight Member Programme has over 65 members and offers valuable membership benefits in lightweight technology. In 2013, the members started the Strategic Innovation Programme LIGHTer, which RISE also hosts. Since then, they both have a close collaboration and share operational management.
