Biotechnology company Circa Group has received authorisation from the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to manufacture or import up to 100 tonnes/year of its bio-based solvent CyreneTM in the European Union, after receiving REACH Annex VIII approval.
This autumn, our clients have been especially hard at work and we have sent out a record amount of press releases. We’re guessing you’ve been busy too and may have missed some updates, so here is a quick round-up which lets you know what happened in the last couple of months.
I have always wanted to work towards a better world and lead with my values. Ten years ago today, I officially launched Sustainability Consult. The business was - and still is - my response to all the greenwashing I see in the world. At Sustainability Consult, we believe communications can be done better and thanks to the years of support we have received from you, we know you believe it too. We pride ourselves on our approach to credible communications and engagement.
We are one very happy agency. Three of our clients made it into the final rankings of the 2018 Biofuels Digest 40 Hottest Transformative Technologies in the Advanced Bioeconomy. With such burning hot clients, it’s no surprise that the temperature in the Sustainability Consult office is rising fast.
LineoTM by Stora Enso, a lignin-based product launched by the renewable materials company earlier this year, has been awarded ‘Innovative Product Award 2018’ by the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE).
Shortlisted alongside products from a range of companies including Dow and Johnson Matthey, the judges chose Stora Enso as the winner “for creating a new bio-based, sustainable material to replace fossil-fuels used in coatings and adhesives”. IChemE recognised LineoTM as a versatile solution made from lignin, one of the main building blocks of a tree.
