Indonesian Palm Oil Giant Looking at Bioplastics Opportunities
09/09/2015 (Biofuels Digest) - In Indonesia, Sinar Mas Group is looking at opportunities to invest in the production of bioplastics from palm oil.
The company currently has two biodiesel plants that use about 800,000 metric tons of crude palm oil annually but believe diversification into other products could be a good move for the business.
