About

Biosynthetics have the potential to offer a renewable alternative to conventional, fossil-based synthetic materials. The Biosynthetics Round Table is a forum for organizations to discuss the opportunities and challenges of this new material category, focusing on sustainable feedstock production. We’re working to develop a framework to assess biosynthetics and define preferred options, supporting the industry to make informed decisions.

SCOPE

Our focus is on the feedstocks used to make biosynthetics.

We’re focusing on the raw materials stage of the biobased synthetics supply chain, assessing the impacts associated with different feedstocks and finding ways to drive beneficial outcomes instead.
