🗓️NEXT WEEK **Online #Open #Innovation #Workshop: 4 December 2024, 11:00-13:00** ANTICIPATORY LCA TO PROMOTE INFORMED DECISION-MAKING IN BIO-BASED PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Join us for an online workshop focused on #Life_Cycle_Assessment (LCA), a vital tool for product sustainability and #Ecodesign. LCA plays a crucial role in the research and innovation of biobased materials by evaluating environmental impacts alongside costs from development through to the end-of-life stage. It aids in optimizing processes, comparing sustainability with fossil-based products, and encouraging sustainable practices among stakeholders. However, implementing #LCA at low Technology Readiness Levels (“anticipatory” LCA) faces challenges due to limited data—such as raw material quality, process yields, substance safety profiles, and energy requirements. This workshop will bring together experts from the BIORING and SuperBark projects to discuss effective strategies for LCA analysis of biobased materials. **Key Questions:**⁉️ - How do we define benchmark materials for new products? Are they substitutes or entirely new? - What methods can be used to gather critical data on novel biobased products throughout their life cycle? - What assumptions exist when scaling up from lab to industrial settings? - How can LCA results inform decision-making in the bio-based industry? **Who Should Attend?** Researchersh and Industry experts, partners of European and national research projects active on similar topics. This is an opportunity for knowledge exchange, helping to accelerate the development of sustainable bio-coatings for high performance industrial applications.

What do you like the most and what are your expectations in participating to the BIORING project? Increase scientific knowledge and advance our capacity to create coatings alternatives to petrol-based products, that in short-medium term will become both applicable by industry and useful to the society. Working in a collaborative framework, instead then a competitive one, with experts coming from different areas and disciplines, such as industrial coatings, recyclability, sustainability, consumers and end-users’ perspective, and market analysis. Trust, collaboration and knowledge sharing are the way to improve faster and better. It’s a win-win situation.

Which are the breakthroughs in biobased building blocks expected by BIORING? Our new bio-chemicals will work in smart combination with bio-chemicals already on the market, to generate new value chain of more recyclable and durable products. In terms of raw materials, BIORING start from available compounds. We expect the market of feedstock-based chemicals to grow; bio-polyols are, for example, increasingly becoming competitive. For the end-of-life you can look for a more compostable or a more recyclable product, as these have typically different chemical structures and properties, with weaker or stronger bonds. In BIORING we are developing protective, resistant, and recyclable coatings, so that the coating will not be a limitation in the overall recyclability of the final coated product. In the specific BIORING case studies (a coating for an interior component of a car, and the top layer of a laminate substrate for kitchen furniture) the most valuable factor for the customer is aesthetic. As it is just a very thin layer of coating on top of a massive substrate (some 30 microns on a 4–5-millimetre component), recyclability is thus a minor issue. However, the BIORING platform will allow to change mixture of chemicals, to reduce resistance and improve biodegradability properties of the coating (or vice versa), as this can be an added value in other sectors, such as packaging & textile.

Which is the novelty and added value of the BIORING process and product solutions? Developing biobased building blocks that can work as complementary components to fossil-based ones, giving an ample flexibility to coating manufacturers in creating new protective and more sustainable coatings, is the BIORING goal. We are developing a platform that will allow up to 95% biobased contents of the coating, with composition and properties adaptable to the specific needs of the user.
