EU project puts plant-fibre car parts on Europe's roads

Original: LIFE BIOBCOMPO: lightweight car parts made from plant fibres now rolling out on Europe's roads

The EU-funded LIFE BIOBCOMPO project has developed lightweight car components made from plant fibres, and the materials are now being rolled out in vehicles across Europe. The innovation, backed by the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency, aims to cut vehicle weight and emissions by replacing conventional plastics with bio-based composites.

Why now: The EU agency's announcement of the project reaching deployment is drawing attention to greener automotive manufacturing.
