InnProBio aims to stimulate demand for bio-based products and services in Europe. The project will increase the number of public procurers equipped to carry out the procurement of innovative bio-based products and services.

This Factsheet addresses myths and facts about biodegradability and reflects upon considerations such as the extent to which all-bio based products are biodegradable.

This factsheet contains detailed information about feedstocks, the end-of-life of bio-based products, and how to measure environmental impacts using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Product Carbon Footprint (PCF). There is also a section on certifications and labels that can help public procurers to define their requirements regarding bio-based products in their public tenders.

This factsheet highlights the benefits of bio-based products, such as their potential to reduce the economy’s dependence on fossil fuels, create green jobs in the European Union, and drive European innovation. The link between bio-based products and sustainability is also outlined.

This guide is addressed to public and semi-public water authorities who are involved in the procurement procedure, hereafter Public Procurers. It intends to provide a comprehensive overview of the legal and practical dimensions of IOPP.
