A new European blueprint for #circular #bioplastics #upcycling solutions. #CBE-funded under #HorizonEurope GA 101156032.
You have power 💚
Choose bioplastic packaging. Ask brands about their choices. Educate others. Support composting infrastructure. Share knowledge.
Progress starts with you. Let's build a future where packaging works with nature.

Bioplastics are one piece of the puzzle 🧩
Part of a larger transformation: circular economy, reduced consumption, better recycling, regenerative practices. They show what's possible when we align innovation with nature's wisdom.

Bioplastics deliver benefits when disposed of correctly 🗑️➡️🌱
✓ Compostable → industrial facilities
✓ Bio-based durable → recycling
✓ When in doubt → check the label
Europe is building infrastructure. Good intentions need good actions.

Look for certified labels 🔍✓
🌱 Seedling = industrially compostable
🏡 OK Compost HOME = home compostable
♻️ Bio-based content certification
These ensure products meet strict European standards. Knowledge is power for protecting our planet.

Coffee cups, food containers, shopping bags—bioplastics are already in everyday life across Europe 📦✨
These aren't prototypes. They're functional products performing as well as conventional alternatives with better end-of-life stories.

"Don't bioplastics compete with food?" 🌾
Modern bioplastics use waste streams: agricultural residues, food industry byproducts, algae, bacterial fermentation, CO2 capture. It's not food OR packaging—waste BECOMES packaging.

The European Commission published today its new EU Bioeconomy Strategy, with plans to strengthen sustainable use of biological resources & support circular value chains. For ReBioCycle this provides useful policy direction on improving sorting & recycling of biobased and biodegradable plastics.

Marine ecosystems are choking on conventional plastic 🌊
While no plastic should reach the ocean, bioplastics signal a mindset shift—from disposable convenience to environmental responsibility. Every choice prioritizes ocean health.

Most bioplastics break down in composting facilities within months, returning nutrients to soil 🌸
Plants → packaging → breaks down → nourishes plants. The circular economy in action. "Throwing away" actually means giving back.

Bioplastics draw from diverse renewable sources 🌊
Algae, bacteria fermentation, industrial waste, agricultural residues, even CO2 capture! This diversity creates a resilient material economy—not dependence on one finite resource.

Your packaging might come from beer brewing waste 🍺✨
Innovative bioplastics use brewery grains, potato peels, coffee grounds, citrus peels—giving value to waste streams. No food competition, just smart use of what we already have.

Traditional plastic = ancient carbon from petroleum ⛽
Bioplastics = carbon already in today's cycle 🌿
When plants grow, they absorb CO2. Bioplastics store that carbon temporarily vs. extracting new carbon underground.
#CarbonFootprint #ClimateAction

Bioplastics come from plants, not fossil fuels 🌱 Some break down naturally, others recycle like conventional plastics—but with 70% less CO2. They're designed with the end in mind, not as eternal waste.

8 million tons of plastic enter our oceans yearly. What if packaging could return to nature instead? 🌍
Bioplastics shift packaging from permanent waste to temporary use. Discover how they're reshaping our material future.
