Due to the environmental and sustainability issues, the interest in bio-based composite materials is rapidly growing, both in terms of their industrial applications and fundamental research. However, when compared to synthetic composites, next to numerous advantages, there are also various serious drawbacks of natural composites. Naming just few e.g. higher moisture absorption, inferior fire resistance, lower mechanical properties and durability. Bio-composites' properties are influenced by a number of variables, including the fibre type, environmental conditions, processing methods, and the type of modification of the fibre. Due to the positive economic and environmental outlook of bio-composites there are numerous studies dedicated to the surface treatment of fibres and improving the fibre/matrix interface. This chapter focuses on the characteristic of the idea of bio-composites, discussing the role of their components: bio-matrix and bio-fillers as well as challenges impeding their advancement into wider applications.
