Biome commits to UN Race to Zero climate campaign
Biome announces that it has signed the SME Climate Commitment
which has been designed specifically for small and medium-sized
enterprises to align their operations with the latest climate
science. By making the SME Climate Commitment, Biome will be
recognised by the United Nations' Race to Zero campaign, which is
aimed at achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050. Biome joins a
wide range of governments, businesses, cities, regions, and
universities around the world that share the same mission.
Climate change risks pose threats to ecosystems, societies,
markets and to companies and a globally coordinated response is
needed to mitigate and manage those risks. Biome is committed to
taking action, supporting the growing drive to a net zero carbon
economy and being at the forefront of growth and the development of
a truly sustainable plastics industry through its Bioplastics
division.
Biome is now making this public commitment to accelerate its
actions in order to:
-- Halve its greenhouse gas emissions before 2030
-- Achieve net zero emissions before 2050
-- Disclose progress on a yearly basis
Biome will commence reporting on progress towards achieving the
commitment to Race to Zero beginning with its Annual Report and
Financial Statements for the year ending 31 December 2021.
Biome's public commitment has been made through the SME Climate
Hub, more details of which can be found here:

Paul Mines, Biome Technologies' Chief Executive Officer,
commented:
"This is an important public commitment that will over time
highlight Biome's everyday actions in production and development in
driving its products, operations and extended supply chain to net
zero carbon emissions."

About Biome
Biome Technologies plc is an AIM listed, growth-orientated,
commercially driven technology group. Our strategy is founded on
building market-leading positions based on patented technology and
serving international customers in valuable market sectors. We have
chosen to do this by developing products in application areas where
the value-added pricing can be justified and are not reliant on
government legislation. These products are driven by customer
requirements and are compatible with existing manufacturing
processes. They are market rather than technology-led.
The Group comprises two divisions, Biome Bioplastics Limited and
Stanelco RF Technologies Limited.
Biome Bioplastics is a leading developer of highly-functional,
bio-based and biodegradable plastics. The company's mission is to
produce bioplastics that challenge the dominance of oil-based
polymers.
Stanelco RF Technologies designs, builds and services advanced
radio frequency (RF) systems. Dielectric and induction heating
products are at the core of a product offering that ranges from
portable sealing devices to large furnaces for the fibre optics
markets.
