Bioeconomy - in your everyday life

Here we want to show you what amazing opportunities there are to make a difference by using renewable resources and investing in a growing circular bioeconomy – a prosperous economy built on fossil-free materials. 

How we eat

With a growing population and rapid urbanisation, smart and recyclable packaging for food is essential to a sustainable lifestyle.

How we live

This rapid urbanisation is increasing the need for adequate and affordable housing.

What we wear

“This is not about public relations. My intention is to create real change in an industry that desperately needs it.”

How we stay healthy

The latest material to keep top-of-mind when it comes to tree-based healthcare is nanocellulose.

How we travel

If the EU is to meet its target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 40% we need to change the way we travel and the source of fuel.
