    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Gives a signpost to key standards, codes of practice and guidance that can be adopted in the production, use and disposal phases of bio-based products. Also gives guidance on the communication of the benefits of bio-based products in a way that is accurate, verifiable, relevant and not misleading. Includes: a) standards that are relevant to the life cycle of a product; b) labelling; c) future areas for standards development; and d) existing and potential future regulatory impacts.
