A new EU-funded chapter for Innovaplast in the circular bioeconomy 🌱
EN⬇️
🌲 We are proud to announce that Innovaplast Biotechnology has been awarded EU funding under the HORIZON-JU-CBE-2025-RIA-01 call as part of the ReTREEsSURE project (Recovery of Tree Resources for Sustainable Use in Renewable Chemistry), focused on the valorisation of untapped forest biomass.
The project is coordinated by Technological University of the Shannon (TUS), Ireland, bringing together a strong European consortium to unlock the potential of underutilised forest-based side streams and convert them into high-value, circular, and bio-based materials.
Within ReTREEsSURE, Innovaplast will contribute its industrial PHB and PHBV biopolymer production expertise, based on microbial precise fermentation and advanced downstream processing, enabling forest-derived feedstocks to be transformed into market-ready biodegradable plastics.
Being selected by the Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE-JU) highlights the role of Innovaplast in building a sustainable, circular and forest-based bioeconomy in Europe.
We look forward to working with TUS and our European partners to bring forest-based innovation from lab to market.
