In just a few days, we’re heading to the InventU Sustainable Future Summit, in Cologne, Germany. 🌿 🎤 Fibenol’s Sustainability Manager, Katrin Jõgi, will take the stage with a discussion on how Fibenol is Shaping the Future of Chemicals and Materials. 👉 Joining her is Lignin Sales Engineer, Kait Kaarel Puss, who’s ready to dive into the potential of #biomaterials and their market impact. Let’s connect and drive innovation forward! #FiberBeyondOil

We are heading to BIOKET Bioeconomy Key Enabling Technologies platform 2025 event. Our CDO, Peep Pitk, will share more about the potential of scalable #biomaterials. 🔜 Join us on March 13th at 10 AM, Parallel Session 9: "Transforming Biomass into High-Value Molecules for Net Zero." 🤝 We’re open to new possibilities and eager to collaborate. Let’s drive innovation and advance the bioeconomy together. Looking forward to see you there! #FiberBeyondoil

Latvia’s rich forests have long been the backbone of its #economy, supplying timber to industries across Europe for centuries. While traditional forestry remains vital, the country is now shifting focus toward higher-value applications. The site of our first industrial-scale plant was selected, in part, due to this commitment to Valmiera City industrial park. As Merili Palu, Fibenol Industrial Size plant Project Manger, points out, unlocking the full potential of wood through cascading use is key to ensuring long-term sustainability and competitiveness. #FiberBeyondOil #Bioeconomy #Biomaterials #Industialplant Valmiera City Latvijas Investīciju un attīstības aģentūra - LIAA

This week, Fibenol, in collaboration with the Embassy of Estonia in Helsinki (Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Estonia) and Trade with Estonia, hosted an event focused on the future of road pavements. The discussion brought together industry leaders, city officials, and researchers to explore how innovative materials and solutions can help the road sector reach net-zero targets while ensuring performance and longevity. Key topics included: ✅ Low-carbon footprint #biomaterials in asphalt pavements, including insights from our pilot project in Vantaa featuring Fibenol #LIGNOVA lignin. ✅ The role of reclaimed asphalt (RAP) in improving pavement durability and reducing environmental impact. ✅ The need for collaborative innovation to meet Green Deal goals through sustainable road solutions. A huge thank you to all the speakers and participants, including Miikka Himmi (Ramboll, PANK President), Niklas Nevalainen (Uudenmaan ELY-keskus), Reet Nõmmoja (Fibenol), and Riku Tujunen (Stara Helsinki) for their valuable contributions. The road to net-zero pavements is paved with innovation - and we’re excited to be part of this transformation! 🤝 Thank you for all the participants and insightful conversations! 🤝 Many thanks to Embassy of Estonia in Helsinki (Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Estonia) and Trade with Estonia and the team - Ambassador Sven Sakkov, Triin Tirp and Irene Surva-Lehtonen for diving into new topics with such an enthusiasm and supporting collaboration beyond borders! #FiberBeyondOil #LIGNOVA #Biobased #SustainableRoads #NetZero #GreenDeal

Fibenol at ACI's Lignofuels 2025 – Unlocking Value Beyond Ethanol & Energy 🌿 An eventful year is in full swing, and we’re excited to rejoin Lignofuels 2025! On February 13th, our Chief Development Officer, Peep Pitk, will take the stage to discuss how #Fibenol’s Hardwood Biorefinery unlocks value beyond ethanol and energy. We’ll dive deep into the scaling potential of biorefineries, their role in CO₂ reduction, and how they enable the development of new, innovative product value chains. ❔ We welcome you to join us, ask questions, and explore how we can bring transparency to the sector by biomass-based solutions while cutting emissions remarkably. 🔜 It is time to connect and collaborate - see you at #Lignofuels 2025! #FiberBeyondOil

Fibenol is excited to join the Bio-based Industries Consortium (BIC) Matchmaking Event 2025! 🌿 With extensive experience in partnering across the value chain, we specialize in developing sustainable solutions. This year, our focus will be on #biobased polymers, platform chemicals, and fiber-based packaging. 📍 We’re looking for #partners to drive the shift from fossil-based to bio-based solutions. Reach out to our Sustainability Manager, Katrin Jõgi, to discuss scalable projects with purpose. 👉 #FiberBeyondOil

Join Fibenol and our Sales Manager Rasmus Toome at the Renewable Carbon Initiative pitch session during the 9th ECP - The First Industry Speed Dating Event on the 12th of February, Frankfurt ! 🎤 "Looking ahead, we focus on the solutions we can provide with innovative woody biomass-based #biomaterials. These materials help the chemical and materials industries move beyond fossil-based feedstocks, enabling more transparent and sustainable value chains," explains Rasmus Toome, from #Fibenol. Excited for insightful discussions ahead See you all next week! 👏 #FiberBeyondOil #Biomaterials #Bioindustry

In 2025, our focus sharpens on different types of #construction materials—a sector where our #biobased solutions have the potential to create a long-lasting impact by significantly reducing CO₂ emissions.   🌿 Wood Sugars: Used as concrete retardants, mineral wool binders, and biobased content glue systems for plywood and other engineered wood products. 🌿 LIGNOVA™ lignin: Replacing fossil-based chemicals like bitumen, phenol, and polyols with scalable, high-performance biobased alternatives for construction materials production. 👉 An overview of the environmental impacts of our products is available to everyone through our #EPD: https://lnkd.in/dM_uwSVP. Our #Priorities for 2025 💡 Driving Change in Bioindustry Legislation: Advocating for clear sustainability standards, supportive ecosystems, and legal frameworks to accelerate innovation, promote biobased products, and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. 💡Piloting and Partnering: Expanding the end-use applications of our products to drive real-world impact in construction materials and beyond. 💡 Fibenol 1: Ongoing preparations for having our first industrial-size plant in #Valmiera by 2030. As we step into 2025, our #mission is clear: driving sustainable solutions within the Planetary Boundaries framework to create a lasting impact on industries and the environment. ⏳ #FiberBeyondOil #Biomaterials #Bioindustry #LCA

🌟Exciting events await as we look ahead! 🌟 This is a call for stakeholders eager to drive the shift toward greener roads in #Finland. In #collaboration with the Embassy of Estonia in Helsinki (Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Estonia), Trade with Estonia, and Fibenol, we invite stakeholders to connect, exchange ideas, and explore innovative solutions for more sustainable road construction.
