About us

Developing, reinforcing and demonstrating value chains for biobased construction

A number of frontrunners are aware of the urgency and opportunities of biobased materials, but are encountering various obstacles to take further steps. BBoBB is about developing, reinforcing and demonstrating value chains for biobased construction so that everyone in the chain – from farmer to builder – is able and willing to make a joint contribution to the challenges of our time.

With 16 partners from Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany and The Netherlands we work together in this project. 



Our work plan

All the activities in our work plan aimed at strengthening and scaling up the use of biobased materials. They are divided over three categories:



1. Governance and policy (WP1);

2. Demonstration of costs and benefits (WP2);

3. Design and awareness (WP3).

The structure of activities and composition of the project partnership ensure that all parties in the chain can be brought together. The transnational cooperation and exchange of knowledge thus offers a scale leap for creating both economic and environmental impact with the application of biobased materials.

The overarching obstacles currently experienced are of organizational, technical and juridical nature:

  • Lack of well-organized value chains
  • Fragmented and partly missing knowledge and data
  • Facilitating government policies, laws and regulations
  • Awareness among different parties in the chain
  • Financial feasibility of biobased construction materials

The objective of BBoBB is to tackle these challenges in the NSR by developing a transnational approach for the valorisation of biobased value chains. This will be demonstrated in 5 regional pilots, where developed methods and business models are actually applied.
