Policy & Legislation
Relevant policies
Several policy – many associated with the European Green Deal – are positioned to enhance the role of oleochemicals in advancing a circular bioeconomy, fostering innovation, and encouraging new investment. To support the European Union’s ambitious climate objectives, it is essential that relevant legislation duly recognises the significance of these bio-based chemicals within a circular economy framework.
Recently, the European Union has focused on introducing and revising policies, regulatory systems, and standards to reinforce and implement both the bioeconomy and circular economy across Europe. These developments have various impacts on the oleochemicals sector.
