Peter Vodegel – Nature restoration with biodegradable BESE-elements

Worldwide we are losing nature rapidly and billions of euros are invested in restoring degraded ecosystems. BESE developed the BESE-elements, a strong lattice structure which is completely biodegradable and is made from waste stream potatoes. Peter Vodegel is a hands-on and innovative ecologist. After his studies in marine ecology, he went to Kenya to set-up a coral reef restoration project. Where he also optimized artificial reef designs and coral tree nurseries. Once the project was up and running, he joined BESE and now helps restore different marine ecosystems around the world with new biodegradable products made from waste streams.
