Bio-based Product Label
A label for bio-based products? What for? In order to promote bio-based material sectors, the Cluster Eco-construction has launched a new label in Wallonia. This label makes it possible to: • guarantee the fundamental approach linked to the renewable nature of materials, • provide objective and clear information to individual consumers and professional specifiers, • promote the Walloon eco-materials sector, • support future policy initiatives related to this topic. In a context of economic development that must incorporate the fight against climate change, bio-based materials such as wood, straw and hemp offer many advantages: • they come from nearby renewable resources, • they require little energy to produce, • they capture CO2 (carbon sinks), • they generate regional economic activity, • they create local and sustainable jobs.
