Every year more than 50 million tons of #paints and #coatings is used that cannot be #recycled. It’s time to do something about that. ♻️ TNO spin-off company Relement creates bio-based aromatics for many difficult-to-recycle products such as coatings, adhesives, lubricants and specialty composites. These specialty bio-aromatics are not only more sustainable, they provide better quality. CEO and Co-founder Roger Blokland: “Our bio-based aromatics essentially are the missing elements you need to fabricate coatings that are 100% renewable.” Read more about Relement 👉 tno.to/d1d Biorizon Topsector Energie VITO #innovation

📰 Exciting: New Meta-Study Highlights That Hydrolysis Prevents the Formation of Persistent PLA Microplastics in the Environment A systematic review of published scientific literature conducted by HYDRA Marine Sciences finds that in the presence of water or humidity, the bioplastic polylactic acid (PLA) will fully hydrolyze, and no persistent nano- or microplastics will remain or accumulate in the environment. 🌱 These findings reinforce Ahlstrom's leading position in offering sustainable alternatives to oil-based plastics through our BioSpun™ spunbond PLA technology. With unique understanding of how fibers can be combined into high-performance specialty materials, Ahlstrom offers a wide range of PLA industrial compostable solutions for tea and coffee market, and many other specialty nonwoven markets. 🌍 Explore the benefits of Ahlstrom's BioSpun™: https://lnkd.in/dBH-DG4n ➡️ Read the study here: https://lnkd.in/dXSd-HBm #PLA #sustainability #sustainablealternatives Holland Bioplastics
