Berlin, 10 September 2025 – 17 partners from 9 countries united in the new Horizon Europe-funded project Be-UP to boost the industrial uptake of biodegradable polymers across Europe. The Be-UP project was officially launched to accelerate the industrial uptake of biodegradable polymers for packaging applications. The project will focus on developing innovative aliphatic-aromatic biopolyesters with [...]
EUBP is proud to be part of four new Horizon Europe R&I projects focusing on packaging and in-soil products. We thank ITENE, AIMPLAS, Novamont, and TotalEnergies Corbion for involving us in these successful applications. A short feature on GRECO, which focuses on biobased packaging, is available on our website. A summary of the twin project [...]
BIO4COAT Title: Biobased building blocks from biorefinery for safe diamond-like and biopolyurethane coating solutions under extreme and demanding conditions of use and end-of-life Expected results: BIO4COAT aims to validate at TRL 5 the use of three biobased building blocks (1,4-bioBDO, lcDCA, and biomethane) from Novamont’s biorefinery for producing safe and sustainable biobased [...]
INSOIL Title: Safe, biobased and biodegradable IN-SOIL solutions for circular and sustainable crop production Expected results: Agricultural plastics used in crop production often remain in the soil after application. Persistent plastic accumulation leads to the release of microplastics and toxic substances causing soil pollution and threatening ecosystems. Single-use plastics are of particular [...]
