Today we are eager to continue supporting ACDV’s key mission of promoting the industrial development of bio-based chemistry."
The ACDV unites the major economic players in the agricultural resources and chemicals sectors, and also those in sectors further downstream, in an effort to promote the industrial development of bio-based chemical production in France and Europe.
Our association provides a platform for all these players to work together in a sustainable manner towards ensuring that bio-based chemicals become one of the major pillars of the Biobased Economy (paragraphe issu du website de l’ACDV).
