Bio-on teams with Spanish coop to potentially develop first bio-PHA in Spain

December 17, 2018 |

In Italy, Bio-on and Sociedad Cooperativa General Agropecuaria have signed an agreement to begin a technical collaboration, the first in Spain, to study and evaluate the opportunity to exploit at industrial scale the Bio-on technologies for the production of PHA bioplastics from sugar beets processing co- and by-products.

The two companies will start working together to implement a dedicated and tailored feasibility study for the realization of a PHA industrial plant in Spain, in the factory of ACOR located in the town of Olmedo at Km 153, the selection of this specific production site will guarantee the bioplastic project to benefit from synergies, interconnections and common services with the sugar factory, but without interfering with the latter’s production, and specific production capacity will be decided during the project implementation accordingly.
