Paques Biomaterials

After a year of bold passion, it’s time for some bold fashion. Thank you so much for joining us this year in our journey in developing a natural alternative to plastic. Wish you a merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2025. We will keep you posted on our developments, because we have a few special ones in the coming year.

Look at our João Sousa in action at the #EBC24.

It was an honour to explain to our Queen how we make PHA and how NVNOM supports us in scaling up our technology. We are lucky to have a Queen who is passionate about sustainable development. #NOM50 #Koningshuis #PHA

Last Friday, we celebrated the closing of the PHA2USE project with the consortium partners at the Greenwise Campus Innovation Center. This project has contributed significantly to scaling up our technology and has shown that making PHA from sewage sludge is a good business case. A big thank you to all the consortium partners and special thanks to our keynote speaker Merijn Tinga ~ Plastic Soup Surfer, for his inspiring speech.
