The 10th European Bioplastics Conference took place on November 5-6, 2015, in Berlin, attracting more than 350 participants from industry, policy, research, and media from around 200 companies and 29 countries to connect and catch up on the latest developments, issues, debates, and trends in the bioplastics industry in Europe. 24 companies showcased a great diversity of the latest products, materials, and applications at the exhibition alongside the conference. In his keynote speech, Mr Reinhard Buscher, Head of Unit Chemicals, DG GROWTH at the European Commission, stressed the necessity to promote biobased products in the European Union in order to unlock Europe's potential for a resource-efficient economy: We need clear, harmonised standards that define the thresholds for sustainability and facilitate high-quality recycling, which is key to creating a strong biobased circular economy.
