The environmental awareness of the society is increasing continuously, and already became an important factor in the development of new materials and technologies. The tendency is recognized also by the European community, which supports a considerable number of projects in order to accelerate the development of materials satisfying public demand, as for example, WOODY.
Joining their efforts three of such projects, Biostruct, Forbioplast and Woody, with overlapping scopes focus on the valorization of forest derived resources for the production of biobased products like polymers, additives and composites with natural reinforcements for various applications including agriculture, automotive, construction, electronics and packaging, decided to organize the BiPoCo 2012 conference in order to create a possibility to disseminate their results and to increase the efficiency of their research and development by exchanging ideas with leading experts in the field.
