The year 2010 has experienced accelerati<strong>on</strong> regarding the raw material shift in the<br />
chemical <strong>and</strong> plastics industry. Clear political requirements towards a bio-<strong>based</strong> ec<strong>on</strong>omy<br />
have become a world-wide phenomen<strong>on</strong>, which includes bio-<strong>based</strong> plastics <strong>and</strong><br />
composites al<strong>on</strong>g with bio-<strong>based</strong> additives <strong>and</strong>green chemistry. An increasing amount<br />
of discussi<strong>on</strong>s have been taking place in Brussels how to support “Knowledge Based<br />
<strong>Bio</strong>-Ec<strong>on</strong>omy (KBBE)”. In Asia <strong>and</strong> North-America they have already implemented instruments<br />
to support bio-<strong>based</strong> products, for example Japan (quota for bio-<strong>based</strong><br />
plastics) <strong>and</strong> US (public procurement program).<br />
The c<strong>on</strong>ference will present the newest developments, investments <strong>and</strong> product<br />
placements from the leading countries in the European Uni<strong>on</strong>: France, Benelux <strong>and</strong><br />
Germany, rounded off by highlights from Asia <strong>and</strong> America.<br />

Switzerl<strong>and</strong>: Palapreg ® ECO P55-01<br />
The bio-<strong>based</strong> “high-performance”-thermoset<br />
resin Palapreg ® ECO P55-01 is a patented<br />
product c<strong>on</strong>sisting of 55 % bio-<strong>based</strong> material,<br />
which is the highest bio-<strong>based</strong> c<strong>on</strong>tent<br />
currently available <strong>on</strong> the market. Palapreg ®<br />
ECO not <strong>on</strong>ly matches the performance of<br />
petrochemical <strong>based</strong> materials in the market<br />
without any compromise <strong>on</strong> its processability,<br />
it even outperforms some of the best traditi<strong>on</strong>al,<br />
oil-<strong>based</strong> plastic materials.<br />

Ecovative design LLC, uSa: EcoCradle<br />
EcoCradle is a low embodied-energy, compostable,<br />
protective packaging material that<br />
is literally grown into any custom shape <strong>and</strong><br />
competes with petrochemical foams in terms<br />
of both performance <strong>and</strong> cost. The self-assemb-<br />
ling b<strong>on</strong>ds formed by mycelium (mushroom<br />
“roots”) produce this material as it grows<br />
around a substrate of regi<strong>on</strong>ally sourced agricultural<br />
byproducts.<br />

Pfleiderer aG, Germany: BalanceBoard<br />
The BalanceBoard is a composite material<br />
solely <strong>based</strong> <strong>on</strong> natural raw materials. The<br />
wood span <strong>based</strong> medial layer is mixed with<br />
about 30 % of light biomass granules <strong>based</strong><br />
<strong>on</strong> renewable raw materials respectively annual<br />
crops (corn, wheat). The board shows a<br />
weight reducti<strong>on</strong> of 30 % compared to comm<strong>on</strong><br />
particle boards while maintaining comparable<br />
mechanical properties.<br />

ROQuEttE, France: GaÏaLEnE ®<br />
GAÏALENE ® is a new “high-performance” range<br />
of bio-<strong>based</strong> plastics for packaging, which<br />
can compete in performance terms (mechanical,<br />
thermal, soft touch, etc.) with fossil<strong>based</strong><br />
plastics. GAÏALENE ® resin is for lasting<br />
applicati<strong>on</strong>s that usually use polyolefins, ABS<br />
<strong>and</strong> more technical polymers – with an excellent<br />
cost/efficiency profile.<br />

Zelfo technology, Germany: Zelfo ®<br />
The “Cellulose Optimizati<strong>on</strong> Resource Efficient<br />
(CORE)”-technology up-cycles cellulosic<br />
<strong>and</strong> ligno-cellulosic waste without the additi<strong>on</strong><br />
of any chemicals, catalysts or binders<br />
to create Zelfo ® , a micro <strong>and</strong> nano-fibrillated<br />
cellulose fibre (MFC/NFC). Zelfo ® can be formed<br />
into finished objects (bio-composites),<br />
or used as a bio-additive to improve plastic or<br />
paper material characteristics.<br />
