Dansk Bioøkonomi Konference 2024 - International TEMADAG Building Based on Bio Based

Dansk Bioøkonomi Konference 2024 was a “special edition” with a thematical focus on agricultural bio building materials.

How do we increase the application of biobased materials in construction?

This year’s conference was a merge with the start conference of Interreg North Sea project “Building Based on Bio Based” [BBOBB].    

Aim of the conference:

• To share North Sea Region state of art knowledge about 3 selected crops for biomaterials: hemp, cattail and flax.
• To demonstrate that with in EU there are mayor regulatory differences and that by learning from each other we may succeed better and faster
• A cross country workshop about regulatory enablers and disablers in the BSR countries. Find a summary from the workshop here.

Thank you to all presenters for sharing their very interesting and informative presentations.
