The use of natural resin and its derived products has suffered significant changes over time, reflecting the improvements associated with the extraction process and technological and industrial development.
The RN21 integrated project brings together, for the first time, the entire value chain of the natural resin sector in Portugal, in a joint effort to leverage the entire sector. It will contribute to achieving the goals of the European Green Deal, which aims to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55 per cent by 2030, through the development of new products.
