PEFerence: Use of Food/Feed Crops for Bio-based Materials and Effects on Food Security

Virtual Event Virtual Event

Using plant-based sugars as a resource leads us to a well-known debate: The competition between food and non-food when it comes to bio-based crops. This debate is flawed, subjective and not fully based on evidence. What is detrimental to food security are, according to the World Food Programme in 2023, climate change, conflict, extreme inequalities …

PERFECOAT Webinar “Greener ingredients for bio-based paints and coatings”

Virtual Event Virtual Event

This second episode of the PERFECOAT webinar series will present success stories and challenges of developing bio-based ingredients for paint and coating formulations. From bio-based binders made from alginate, xylan, chitosan to modified yeast to innovative natural pigments and dyes produced from yeast and fungi, and functional nano materials.

Bio-based Innovations for Industrial Applications – Free registration • In-person Event

BIP Meeting Center in Brüssel Rue Royale 2-4, Brussels, Belgium

Explore the latest bio-based solutions for a variety of applications. The event combines presentations, a poster exhibition and plenty of opportunities for networking. Speakers will include researchers involved in the development of new bio-based materials and representatives from industry and the CBE JU.
The organisers of the event, the BBI JU projects CHAMPION and PERFECOAT, aim to replace conventional fossil-based materials with novel bio-based ones. The CHAMPION project focuses on bio-based thermoset coatings, structural adhesives, automotive interior surfaces and home care additives, while the PERFECOAT project is all about new bio-based ingredients for paints and coatings for wood and decorative applications. Four other thematically related European projects will also present their experiences in the quest for innovative and sustainable bio-based materials and products.
