While one third of the global non-renewable resources are used for the processing and transportation of manufactured goods, resources are becoming scarce and the need for renewable bio-based materials strongly increasing. While consumers would prefer products made from renewable resources, our highly demanding society will not sacrifice performance for sustainability. With Bcomp, there is no compromise. Our bio-based materials deliver the same or better performance as traditional materials, but are made from renewable resources. Our technologies are perfect solutions for industries such as automotive, robotics, design & furniture and sports & leisture.
Our desire to permanently deliver high performance, sustainable materials has resulted in two major technologies:
