EUBP Talk Series Webinar
In 2024, European Bioplastics introduced a series of informal online talks exploring alternative sustainable feedstock sources for bioplastics. The webinar series brought together researchers, organizations, and companies to exchange ideas and solutions in an informal setting.
Building on this success, EUBP is excited to launch a new series, titled “Advancements in Recycling of Bioplastics.” This series will focus on the recycling of bioplastics and the scaling up of recycling technologies. It’s primary goals are to:
- Offer a platform to share latest results of research and innovation
- Share information on some technologies that are already commercially in use
- Offer a possibility for European Bioplastics members and other interested stakeholders to connect to outstanding research organisations
- Gather R&I input for policy positions/papers
The 2025 EUBP talks will take place monthly, starting in February 2025 and run until June 2025, at 10:00 am. The wrap up event will take place in Brussels on 3 June 2025 at 15:00 – 18:00 CET/CEST.
Stay tuned for updates on this exciting new series and join us as we continue driving innovation in the bioplastics sector.
The views and opinions expressed in these webinars are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the official position of European Bioplastics and its members.

EUBP Talk #3
In our third edition, Arno Cordes, from ASA Spezialenzyme GmbH, will present on Enzymatic Recycling for Bioplastics. This talk will focus on the efficiency of enzyme use in the degradation of polymers and on the level of maturity for industrial applications. Jan Pels from TORWASH, will provide an in-depth look at TORWASH technology for chemical recycling. This talk will focus on depolymerizing polyesters and subsequent repolymerizing them into polyesters with exactly the same characteristics of virgin materials. Learn more
EUBP Talk #4
In fourth third edition, Geoffroy Delvinquier from Futerro, will explain how the scaling-up of recycling technologies will be made possible, both from a technical and strategic perspective. Fortunato Palma Esposito from Anton Dohrn Zoological Station will present on the next generation industrial biotechnology based on extremophilic bacteria. Marine bacteria could be considered a promising microbial chassis to develop Next-Generation Industrial Biotechnology (NGIB) strategies for producing and degrading bioplastics more competitively.
