Valbiom helps you to find and implement sustainable solutions in the field of biobased economy.
Our motivation: to implement, by your side, solutions in biobased economy. We are committed to achieving the goal of a more resilient, low-carbon society that creates local jobs.
Thanks to our expertise in biobased materials and bioenergy, we are steering the Walloon economy towards local and sustainable renewable solutions.
As part of its public mission, Valbiom acts as a territorial facilitator of the transition towards a biobased economy. For a personalised accompaniment, Valbiom also offers support and consultancy services.

Hemp4Circularity
Hemp4Circularity is an Interreg NWE project that aims to implement an innovative, local and biobased ecological fibre - long hemp fibre - in the North-West European textile value chain, from growers to weavers/knitters, from field to fashion.
The project sets up pilot actions at several stages of the value chain (cultivation, primary processing, data-driven agriculture, spinning, fabric production) to optimise all stages of production, so that they can be implemented sustainably, from fibre to recycling solutions. With this project, from field to recycled fibre, hemp is a driver for circularity in the textile industry!
