Offer description:
With green raw materials, we mean (for example) crops and residual streams from agriculture and the food industry. But that is not the only thing we deal with in the knowledge centre. We look at the entire production chain and its consequences. For instance, in the design phase of a product, we take into account the raw materials and components used and whether they can be reused or recycled. We also look at chemical or industrial production processes and whether they can be more efficient or sustainable. We look at plant-based foods and their effect on our health. Finally, we look at what happens to a product at the end of its life. In other words, our goal is less energy, less waste, less pollution and more saving, recycling, and sustainability.
