The Gómez Pardo Foundation is a non-profit organization focused mainly but not exclusively on the development of mining engineers, the support of sustainability in the raw materials and construction sectors. It currently manages a construction materials laboratory (LOEMCO) and another metallurgy laboratory (LAMIMER) in which we provide services to the industry and perform different R&D projects. At this moment, we are on the beginning of a new line of research about the use of wastes and alternative materials in construction products with 4 PhD in progress and 3 master thesis. In addition, we participate in other projects related to the Circular Economy, metallurgy, waste recovery...
