The European Commission is sounding out citizens, consumers and expert stakeholders with a view to the preparation of an EU-wide policy framework for biobased, biodegradable and compostable plastics.

The policy framework was announced in the EU Plastics Strategy, the European Green Deal and the Circular Economy Action Plan. It will aim to clarify the role that biobased, biodegradable and compostable plastics can play in delivering on the Commission’s commitments to a carbon-neutral and circular economy.
