Discover how materials are made from biomass. By making smart use of the properties of carbohydrates, proteins, lignin, fibers and oils/fats in the biomass, high-quality biobased materials can be produced. In this Nature Building Kit Special you will discover a collection of biobased materials that are being worked on within Wageningen University & Research (WUR), from sheet material to textiles and plastics.
Check out the label on the back of each material for more information about the material itself, its properties and what it is made of.
