Biomarine 2021 - Land and marine forests - the winning duo of the bio packaging

Amongst the plastic packaging produced annually, bio-based materials represent only 1%.  Notably, the demand for bio-based materials for packaging is expected to grow up to 9.45 million tons by 2023. The issue of sustainability is crucial, encouraging politics, academia, and industry to develop sustainable and circular alternatives for preserving resources for future generations, focusing on biodegradable and bio-renewable materials. This new packaging approach will combine marine resources and forests.

Trois-Rivières, Quebec, Canada wants to showcase its leading expertise in the research of cellulose-based products involving wood components, algae and marine co-product. The entire region is supporting the development of a world center of competence and expertise on biomaterials and bio-packaging. The area will capitalize on the experience of its local actors, their international partners and its strong expertise inherited from the forest product industry.

On Nov 17 and 18, join us during this digital event mixed with on-site delegations and discuss with international experts and industry.

Flights/travel and accommodations are not included in the fee.  Fully vaccinated delegates only to enter Canada. 

Deadline for registration is November, 8th.
