At the 2022 FlexPO+ (now incorporated into the ADI Forum), Raj Krishnaswamy, VP of Polymers R&D, CJ Bio, joined the bio‑based polymers and sustainable materials panel. Key topics included the inherent biodegradability of microbially produced, bio‑based polymers (aliphatic polyesters). These polymers served as a food source for microorganisms, ensuring their complete degradation. The trend was toward utilizing these sustainable, sugar‑fermented materials as fully biodegradable alternatives to traditional plastics.
