It is being used for packaging applications, for fibres in woven and non-woven applications. Even the automotive industry and consumer electronics are already applying PLA. Blending PLA with other bioplastics or other blend-partners as well as mixing it with natural fibres such as flax, hemp or kenaf broadens the range of applications even more.
Experts from all involved fields will share their knowledge and contribute to a comprehensive overview of today’s opportunities and challenges and discuss the possibilities, limitations and future prospects of PLA for all kind of applications.
ISCC will speak on sustainable supply chains for PLA production.
