Biochemicals
Bio-based chemicals produced from renewable biological resources, used to replace fossil-based chemicals in industrial applications such as polymers, adhesives, binders, resins, coatings, solvents and intermediates.
Biofuels
Renewable fuels derived from biological feedstocks that support the defossilisation of transport and energy systems, including advanced and next-generation biofuels.
Biorefinery technologies
Integrated technologies that convert biomass into chemicals, materials and energy/fuels, maximising the value of biological resources through efficient and circular processing.
Biotechnology
Technologies based on micro-organisms or enzymes that enable the production of sustainable materials, chemicals, ingredients and industrial solutions. Biotechnology can unlock new value chains through precision fermentation, synthetic biology and modern bioengineering.
Food & feed
Innovations related to sustainable food and feed production, including novel ingredients, alternative proteins, improved nutrition and resource-efficient processing.
Sustainable agriculture, forestry & fisheries
Solutions that improve the sustainability, productivity and resilience of primary production systems while supporting biodiversity, soil health and responsible use of resources.
Textiles
Bio-based and circular textile solutions, including new fibres and materials and recycling technologies that reduce environmental impact across textile value chains.
Bio-based polymers & bioplastics
Polymers and plastics made partly or fully from renewable biological resources, designed to reduce fossil dependency while meeting performance and regulatory requirements enabling circularity.
Products based on fibres and cellulose
Products derived from cellulose fibres, used in applications such as packaging, construction materials, hygiene products and advanced materials with a focus on replacing plastics and enabling circularity.
