Company Profile

Bioro is the only operation in Belgium that produces biodiesel from rapeseed on a single site.

Bioro is one of the first biodiesel plants constructed in Belgium. The company was established in 2005 and is located in the port of Ghent.

Construction of the new biodiesel plant is now completed. The plant has a capacity of 250,000 metric tonnes of biodiesel per year, using vegetable oils as raw material. Construction was finalised end of 2007.

This site is unique as the whole of the process from raw material to refined end product is completed on-site, without the need for any extra transportation. The whole operation will also create opportunities in many other areas, such as the valorisation of glycerin.

A pioneer of the bio-based economy

Bioro strives to be both a sustainable and profitable business, with products that meet the highest quality standards.
