About

Axel Barrett

My name is Axel Barrett and I started BioplasticsNews.com in 2013. I worked in Public and Government Affairs on topics such as as packaging, waste management and corporate communications. Eventually, I moved into ‘digital’ and ‘web’.

The best way to learn about the ‘internet’ was to build a website and Bioplastics seemed an interesting and sustainable topic relevant for the readers.

Bioplastics is no silver bullet. It’s never really black or white, it’s a bit grey-ish.

My purpose became to build the most efficient and complete information platform on bioplastics and chemical recycling. The mission is to inform the readers, tell the truth and keep the church in the middle of the village.

The website audience has been growing over the years reaching more than a million unique visitors.
