PULP2VALUE aims to demonstrate an integrated and cost-effective cascading biorefinery system to refine sugar beet pulp and isolate high value products for detergents, personal care, oil & gas, paints & coatings and composites. The project will spur rural development in sugar beet growing areas by connecting them in new cross-sectoral value chains with various industries including the chemical and food industry. ‘We are very pleased with this support which will allow us, together with our partners, to speed up the project and demonstrate both the economic and technical viability in the next years’, says Mr Gert de Raaff, director New Business and member of the Cosun Executive Board. ‘The commitment from the EU will support additional investments in both know-how as well as in fixed assets to reduce the time to market and successfully build new biobased value chains.’ Visit also: www.cosunbiobased.com © Royal Cosun T +31 (0)76 530 32 22 Home Disclaimer Privacy policy Sitemap Cosun general terms and conditions of purchase
