Are you ready for a bio-based quota?

Content of the workshop

Policy framework, Status and Outlook: Will a quota for bio-based plastics in packaging be introduced? Which quotas are likely, and when? Which sectors beyond packaging are under discussion? For which applications is industrial compostability already mandatory today?

—> Get the latest insights into plans and concepts of the European Commission in the framework of the bioeconomy strategy.

Reduced carbon footprint: Is it true that bio-based plastics show an intrinsic lower carbon footprint than fossil plastics? Which new LCA-standards account for carbon uptake through biomass?

—> Get insights into recent developments like LCI database updates demonstrating higher footprints of fossil plastics, or changing biogenic carbon accounting in LCA methodology

Biomass availability: Is there enough biomass for packaging and more? 

—> Get insights into the latest global and European scenarios and modelling on biomass availability for scaling up bio-based plastics.

Availability of bio-based polymers to fulfil the upcoming quotas: Which market and price developments can be expected? Which bio-based plastics are available and suitable for the packaging sector? Who are key producers and traders?

—> Receive detailed insights into current and future market dynamics, including capacities of 17 bio-based plastics and their suppliers.
