The bioplastics industry has developed extremely fast in recent years and the interest of the manufacturing industry in this new class of materials is greater than ever. Therefore it is not surprising that many research institutions and companies worldwide devote themselves to the development and marketing of these alternative plastics. Increasingly products beyond the packaging industry which can be safely regarded as technical and durable products come onto the market with increasing frequency. In addition to ecological reasons, the use of renewable materials (e.g. bio-plastics) due to the recent rapid rise in commodity prices is much more than just interesting also from an economic point of view.

In this sense, we would like to provide you with an overview of bio-plastics, their market opportunities and environmental benefits. Please see the corresponding information in the contents of each menu item.
