Biolähtöiseen

Biolähtöiseen is a Finnish term that translates to "bio-based" or "derived from biological sources" in English. It refers to materials, products, or energy that originate from renewable biological resources such as plants, animals, microorganisms, or organic waste. The concept emphasizes sustainability and the reduction of reliance on fossil fuels.

Bio-based materials are often biodegradable and can help lower the carbon footprint associated with production and disposal. Examples include bioplastics made from corn starch or sugarcane, biofuels derived from agricultural crops or algae, and building materials sourced from wood or bamboo. The development and use of biolähtöiseen solutions are driven by environmental concerns and the desire for a circular economy, where resources are reused and waste is minimized. This approach aims to create a more sustainable and environmentally friendly industrial system by utilizing renewable biological resources.
