    Brand Views and Adoption of Bio-based Polymers

    This trend report gives an overview on different brand strategies.

    The report may help to:

    • Better know and understand brand owners by showing their vision, targets, commitments and actions which affect or concern the adoption of bio-based polymers
    • Analyze their communication and purchasing policies and practices to detect promising approaches for bio-based polymers applications
    • The selection is based on major companies owning brands who are acknowledged leaders and frontrunners, or supposedly have such ambitions, or teach us why this has not yet happened.

    Biocomposites: 350,000 t production of wood and natural fibre composites in the European Union in 2012

    The most important application sectors are construction (decking, siding and fencing) and automotive interior parts. Between 10 – 15% of the total European composite market is covered by Wood-Plastic Composites (WPC) and Natural Fibre Composites (NFC). Main authors of the study are Michael Carus and Asta Eder, biocomposite experts of nova-Institute, Germany. The study points out the growth potential of WPC and NFC granulates for injection moulding for all kinds of technical applications and consumer goods as well as in the automotive industry. What’s more, bio-based polymers in combination with wood and natural fibres take on greater significance – applied in everything from toys to automotive interior.

    The market report gives the first comprehensive and detailed picture of the use and amount of wood and natural fibre reinforced composites in the European bio-based economy. The analysis covers natural fibre as well as Wood-Plastic Composites in extrusion, injection and compression moulding in different branches and applications.

    Europe’s current position in producing bio-based polymers is limited to a few polymers. However, new developments and investments are foreseen: the first European industrial-scale PLA plant by 2014, the introduction of future PET production facilities by 2015, recent developments in the commercialization of bio-based PBT and further advancements in the field of high-value fine chemicals for PA, PUR and thermosets production.

    Although Europe shows a strong demand for bio-based polymers, production tends to take place elsewhere, namely in Asia and America. The European Union’s relatively weak position in the production of bio-based polymers is largely the consequence of an unfavourable political framework for the industrial material use of biomass.

    The European market data present the latest findings of production capacities of bio-based polymers in Europe based on the market study published by the nova-Institute in spring this year and its continuously updated database.
