NEW EXCITING WEBINAR – SEPTEMBER 23 – 10.00-11.00 (CEST)
How to move away from fossil polymers, the danish way
Pre-registration for the webinar is now closed!
However, since the event is free of charge, you can still join using the link below. The webinar starts on September 23 at 10:00 AM (CEST):
Nordic Bioplastics Association kicks off the autumn with this exciting webinar on 23 September, 10–11 am.
The global uncertainty and the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz have given new momentum to the search for fossil-free raw materials from which to make plastic. At the same time, there is a debate about whether the bio-based raw material will be sufficient and whether biodiversity risks declining drastically.
The only thing we are certain of is that society must cease extracting fossil raw materials if our societies are to survive in the long term. Reuse and recycling are all well and good – they can certainly reduce the need for fossil raw material – but making ourselves economically independent of gas and oil requires more than that. Meanwhile, the European Commission has launched its bioeconomy strategy and wants to support similar initiatives to strengthen Europe’s competitiveness.
That is why all innovative ideas and plans are worth listening to. The day will feature two interesting Danish companies working with different strategies to achieve economic independence from fossil raw materials.
The webinar runs for approximately one hour between 10:00 and 11:00 on September 23, 2026.
You are welcome to attend completely free of charge!

Speakers:
Maren Bohl
Co-founder and CTO of Nuterial ApS, background in pharmaceutical technology, but nowadays she is working at the intersection of material science and industry adoption
Maren Bohl is co-founder and CTO of Nuterials ApS, the Danish company behind JECTO, a composite of certified biodegradable PHA and upcycled walnut shells, designed as a drop-in replacement for conventional plastics in injection molding. With a background in pharmaceutical technology, she now works at the intersection of material science and industry adoption. In this session she explains why nutshells are more than a low-cost filler: the particles act as a processing aid, controlling crystallization behavior, reducing shrinkage and warping and shortening cycle times in standard equipment. She will share promising application areas, prototypes, and Nuterials’ latest findings.
Michael Poulsen
With an engineering background, Michael has been involved in the Vioneo project from the inception
Michael Poulsen will present Vioneo’s way to make fossil-free plastics, showing how the company combines proven industrial technologies with green methanol and renewable power to produce virgin, drop-in polyethylene and polypropylene without any fossil feedstock. He will explain how this integrated, fully segregated and certified approach eliminates CO₂ emissions from production while delivering the performance and verifiable bio-content (via C14 analysis) that brands and converters request.
