In the Netherlands, the new 100% bio-based cosmetic containers were presented during the 2nd Bio-based Business Event at the Emmtec Industry & Businesspark in Emmen on the 22nd of September, 2016. The containers that were produced from BioPET100 was a product of a partnership between Dutch SME’s and universities in the country
The aromatic building blocks of the BioPET100 are made from glycerin from SunOil and the glycerin is converted to bio-aromatics with the help of catalytic pyrolysis technology of BioBTX.
It is also interesting to note that it unprecedented that secondary biomass feedstock be converted in polyester end-product and this shows the possibility of totally break the production of all plastics from fossil resources.
