Brussels, 12 October 2018 – Cefic welcomes the Commission’s adoption of the new Bioeconomy Strategy. The bioeconomy offers an exciting opportunity for the European chemical industry to create new products and diversify its raw material base. Cefic acknowledges that the Commission is on the right track with the three main action areas and its cross-policy focus approach.
Now is the right time to strengthen markets and unlock investments. The further mobilisation of public funding in Horizon Europe, in research and demonstration of bio-based solutions will support this key trend.
