What is a Bio-based product?

Bio-based products are wholly or partly procured from material of biological origin, excluding materials embedded in geological formations and/or antiquated. In other words, one can say, bio-based products are materials deliberately made from substances derived from living or once-living organisms. Examples of bio-based products are habiliment made from milk, wood or coffee grounds, disposable tableware from palm leaves, disposable plastic bags, toiletries, shampoo, etc. As they are derived from viable raw materials, they help reduce CO2 and provide other benefits such as lower virulency to healthful living. The major reason that is enhancing the demand for global bio-based materials is the emerging recognition regarding preserving the environment.
