OBS

La substitution de produits à base de pétrole (composants de carburants, lubrifiants, polymères, solvants, tensioactifs) par des agro-produits améliore leur bilan environnemental en suscitant en outre l'adoption de méthodes de production respectueuses de l'environnement (agriculture raisonnée, procédés industriels propres, réduction des volumes de déchets et d'effluents). Elle contribue également à la diminution des risques sanitaires (toxicité, C.O.V. - composés organiques volatils).
