The university and industrial research and education platform of the recycling society (UNIVNET) consists of five research universities and the Automotive Industry Association of the Slovak Republic. It focuses on issues of new technologies and techniques of effective waste recovery, especially in the automotive industry, with the aim of minimizing negative impacts on the environment and saving primary energy and raw material resources.

Currently, the UNIVNET association focuses on the transition from theoretical studies and initial experiments to the implementation of solutions in cooperation with industry. The involvement of specific partners from the industry is intended to help move the research teams to achieve specific outputs, with specific designs of products, technologies, or solutions, from production to sales.
