Focus on Biobased Products and Sustainable Solutions

Biobased pharmaceutical chemicals are prepared from compounds found occurring in nature, containing active components in extract form obtained from sources, including plants, microbes and animals.

Biofuel is a renewable source of energy preferred for how easy it is to extract and its renewability. It originates from plants such as corn, soy, sunflower, sorghum, and wheat.

Renewable biofuels are with the benefits of low costs, lower toxicity in the atmosphere, no sulfur content.

Non-toxic and biodegradable colorants enable more sustainable solutions for textiles, coatings and packaging, which is a remarkable step towards bio and circular economy. In addition, biobased dyes and pigments can reduce industrial water pollution, a common problem in dyes and pigments industry.

Biosurfactants are surfactants that are produced extracellularly or as part of the cell membrane by bacteria, yeasts and fungi. Biosurfactants are molecules of increasing interest due to their multifunctional properties, biodegradable nature and low toxicity, in comparison to synthetic surfactants.
