Growingpaper's printed material is made using biodegradable inks on paper made from recycled paper or cotton waste - with flower seeds in it. Once you've finished with it, put it aside until spring then plant it and help biodiversity!
This public hearing is organised in connection with the opinion being prepared by the EESC on A comprehensive strategy for nature-based biodegradable materials to foster circularity and resource efficiency, strengthen the agri-food sector and scale-up the EU bioeconomy. The hearing will gather input for a comprehensive strategy for nature-based biodegradable materials.
Every year, the Valencian agricultural sector generates around 800 000 tons of plant waste, such as rice straw and citrus pruning waste. Unfortunately, the methods used to recover this biomass are costly. The EU-funded BIOVALSA project aims to develop innovative processes for manufacturing sustainable bioplastics from these waste streams.
This workshop will look at how laboratory-trained bacteria can help restore polluted soils and waters, and how policy and regulatory frameworks can support circular outcomes while safeguarding public health and the environment.
SUSBOARD is a new Horizon Europe Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Europe (CBE-JU) innovation project. It aims to develop a 100% bio-based, formaldehyde-free and cost-competitive adhesive for particleboard and medium-density fibreboard. The adhesive is manufactured using secondary biomass streams, and will greatly facilitate recycling and recovery.
