We are delighted to announce the winning of the Bio-Based Product Innovation of the Year award at the prestigious World Bio Markets (‘WBM’) awards, dedicated to recognise and celebrate the companies and individuals who are driving the bioeconomy sector globally.

Marcel van Berkel, our Chief Commercial Officer, commented: “We are honoured that GFBiochemicals has won Bio-Based Product Innovation of the Year award at the prestigious World Bio Markets. This award represents an important recognition of our work and gives us great encouragement to continue on our development path. Our product has enormous potential for growth in the coming years particularly in bioplastics which we are pursuing through our recent acquisition of Segetis which is one of the market-leaders in the US”.
