What we do

Influence

We work with the government, policymakers, industry leaders and academia to promote and advocate for policies that support the growth of the bio-based and biodegradable sector.

Innovate

We are dedicated to advancing the industrial bioeconomy, by supporting projects that aim to develop new sustainable materials and technologies that reduce waste and greenhouse gas emissions.

Connect

We provide an international platform for organisations and professionals within the bio-based and biodegradable sector to network and collaborate, exchange ideas, and form partnerships.

Communicate

We proactively share information that elevates public and policy makers knowledge about the benefits of bio-based and biodegradable products, to inform, educate, and inspire action.
