BIOS MATER Featured at EUBP Talk #1 on Bioplastics in Construction
BIOS MATER was recently showcased at EUBP Talk #1: Material Solutions – Bioplastics Beyond Packaging: Construction, part of the talk series organised by European Bioplastics....
Re-designing the construction sector
BIOSMATER
Sustainable and functional bio-based construction products and building elements.
BIOS MATER is a Horizon Europe project driving the shift to safe, circular, and low-carbon construction. We’re developing high-performance building materials from renewable sources, combining durability, safety, and sustainability.
With 22 partners across 10 countries, we unite research, industry, and policy to scale up climate-resilient solutions for tomorrow’s buildings
From Biowaste to Buildings -Our 3-Step Path
Project Goals andExpected Impact
BIOS MATER sets out to transform construction with circular, safe, and bio-based solutions that work in the real world and support sustainable change.
Advance Bio-Based Construction
Develop and demonstrate construction materials made from biomass, reducing reliance on fossil-based plastics.
