BIO-ON srl

Bio-on was founded in 2007 to work in the field of modern biotechnologies applied to widely used materials in order to create completely natural products and solutions, obtained 100% from renewable sources or agricultural processing waste materials. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (truly biological plastic) for the full range of strategic applications (general packaging, food packaging, design, clothing, automotive). Bio-on directly targets the agriculture and food sector (production and distribution), providing all players with the technology required to produce or use PHAs through the development of the relative characterisations. Intellectual Property Company. From the design office to the pool of engineering firms and labs engaged on an ongoing basis in the design, production and distribution of Bio-on know-how. The production of PHAs is restricted, area by area, through technology usage license contracts or industrial partnerships dedicated to specific commercial areas. Scale up industrial processes by defining production modules. We create complete Engineering from the laboratory to the production plant on an industrial scale, with production modules from 5 to 10 thousand tons per year. We offer production technology licensing with design and implementation by qualified industry partners.

Products & Services

MINERV-PHA is a high-performance PHA biopolymer. MINERV-PHA is endowed with optimal thermal properties. Production needs which range from -10°C to a +180°C can be met through characterization. This product is particularly suitable for injection and extrusion methods for the production of objects. It takes the place of highly pollutant materials such as PET, PP, PE, HDPE and LDPE. Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), a linear polyester naturally occurring as a result of bacterial fermentation of sugar waste. This family can bring together more than 100 differing monomers to produce materials whose properties vary very greatly. Thermoplastic or elastomeric materials can be created with melting points ranging from 40 to more than 180°C.

Novamont SPA

Novamont was created as a Montedison research centre and given the ambitious objective of "Living Chemistry for Quality of Life". Since the outset Novamont's mission is to find solutions to the pressing problems of environmental pollution by developing products based on renewable raw materials of agricultural origin, which minimize production of post-consumption waste because they can be recycled via composting. Novamont produces and sells various ranges of biopolymers (thermoplastic polymeric materials that are biodegradable and compostable) under the Mater-Bi® brand.

Products & Services

Mater-Bi® is an innovative family of bioplastics that uses both renewable raw materials, such as corn starch and plant oils, and biodegradable polymers from fossil sources. Manufactured in the factory in Terni, Mater-Bi® comes in granular form and can be processed using the most common transformation techniques for plastics. It can be used to create products whose characteristics are similar to or even better than those of traditional plastics, but which are perfectly biodegradable and compostable. The different forms of Mater-Bi® are known as 'grades' and each one is identified by a different code. In the grades containing starch, the starch is "complexed" with variable quantities of biodegradable polymeric complexing agents to create a variety of molecular superstructures with a wide range of properties that can be put to many different uses.
