Bioproducts are goods created from plant matter. Any sort of organic material that is available on a renewable basis is referred to as biomass. Crops and trees, timber and wood waste, aquatic plants, and grasses are all included.


The biggest difference between bio products and those that are derived from petroleumis that the latter is created from non-renewable resources. Once it is used, it is used. That is the end of that product's life cycle.
