Linde De Vriese
As a materials engineer, I support companies in developing and improving real, visible products we all encounter in daily life: wind turbine blades, train components, window profiles, service trays, and more. My goal is to help you choose the right materials and techniques to make your products lighter, more durable, more sustainable.
With a strong background in composite materials, I focus on innovation with lightweight, corrosion-resistant and versatile solutions. At Sirris, I work on topics such as bio-based composites, composite recycling, and thermoplastic composites. I’m also involved in multiple projects, from writing funding proposals to building partnerships in the dynamic (and surprisingly close-knit) world of composites.
