Webseminar: Bioplastics for the packaging industry – basics

Innoform Coaching

Introduction to the world of Bioplastics

Around 400 million tons of plastic are produced worldwide every year. And the trend is still rising. Around 1 to 2 percent of these are already bioplastics (renewable raw materials and/or biodegradable). Bioplastics can contribute to sustainability and open up new market opportunities for plastics manufacturers and therefore processors.

Biopolymers for packaging

In this Innoform-Coaching web seminar, you will meet our experienced bioplastics specialist Niklas Voss on February 5th. Our aim is to give you a comprehensive introduction to the world of bioplastics so that you can make informed decisions when it comes to choosing materials for your company or project. The state of the art of biopolymers for packaging applications will be presented. The various possible uses of biopolymers will be shown and the advantages and disadvantages discussed. The most important biopolymers used in the packaging sector can be classified and evaluated after this web seminar. Terms such as drop-in polymers and biodegradability will be clarified. The focus is on an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of various biopolymers compared to fossil-based “standard plastics”.
