METEX Biopolymers

Biobased ingredients for sustainable biopolymers
METEX BIOPOLYMERS INGREDIENTS offers natural origin building blocks to produce biopolymers.

Biopolymers represent a universe of properties and applications that surrounds us everyday. We hardly see the top of the iceberg of how much our way of living leans on them. However, the widely recognized environmental challenge we face requires us to switch their production to more sustainable paths.

METEX BIOPOLYMERS INGREDIENTS provides ingredients that are natural origin building blocks to produce a wide range of biopolymers, as alternatives to the fossil based products, which still represent a vast majority of our consumption world-wide.

Sustainable biopolymers are not only biobased, they offer also enhanced performances, whether in terms of properties of usage, in order to optimize the use of such resource, but also in terms of end-of-life.

METEX BIOPOLYMERS INGREDIENTS offer improved sustainability features, whether in terms of natural origin, carbon impact, usage properties or biodegradability.
