- This paper presents key findings on sustainable biodegradable lignocellulosic hemp fiber/polycaprolactone biocomposites for lightweight applications. The knowledge generated from paper in conjunction with other journal papers on the theme of natural fibre composites made good contributions to the application and award of Interreg (FLOWER) project in a consortium led by Dr.Alain Bourmaud (alain.bourmaud@univ-ubs.fr). This four year project (2018-2022) with project grant code ""INTERREG VA FCE Program, FLOWER project, Grant Number 23" has a budget of 4.6 million Euros and involves the University of Cambridge, University of South Brittany in Lorient, (INRA) Nantes, 4 industrial companies EcoTechnilin, Depestele, Howa-Tramico and Kaïros.
