BioBode is developing a process technology which will enable a major global by-product to be converted into a biodegradeable plastic with similar properties and processability to that of LDPE. 

The technology will enable industrial producers to convert a low-value by-product into high-value biodegradable plastic pellets.

BioBode is developing its unique process technology in collaboration with AIT’s Department of Polymer Engineering under

Dr Clem Higginbotham, AIT, Bernaddette Dooley, Enterprise Ireland, Scott O' Connor, BioBode, and Dr Michael Brougham, Manager Campus Enterprises, Enterprise Ireland.
