Biobased Materials
Biosourced polymers are synthesized from natural raw materials derived from renewable resources.
Materials that come from nature
Biosourced polymers are synthesized from natural raw materials derived from renewable resources.
Biobased materials & performance
Materials whose physical and chemical properties are as close as possible to your expectations.
Plant fibres & mineral fillers
In order to reduce our environmental impact as much as possible, we favour local sourcing.
Some examples of plant fibres and mineral fillers
Wild reed
Charente (France)
Reed is a natural fibre derived from the recycling of bio-waste.
Hemp
Loire-Atlantique (France)
Hemp is a natural fibre with aesthetic and technical properties.
Miscanthus
Eure et Loire (France)
Miscanthus is a virtuous plant that thrives on non-fertile soil.
Oysters
Brittany (France)
Oyster shells are bio-waste from the Morbihan oyster industry.
Eggs
Britanny (France)
Eggshells are by-products of industrial egg breaking.
St-Jacques
Brittanny (France)
Coquilles Saint-Jacques are bio-waste from the oyster industry.
From reed to matter
Creating a material that is consistent with your values and environmental concerns is an important issue.
There are several advantages to adding reed fibres to biobased materials:
- First, reed fibre is a renewable natural resource, which reduces the environmental impact and minimizes the amount of biobased polymer used.
- Second, reed fibres improve the mechanical and thermal properties of bioplastics, increasing their strength, rigidity and dimensional stability.
- It also enables us to make the most of a co-product. The fibres we offer come from the upkeep of rose gardens in the Charente region to prevent soil siltation or alluviation, and are independent of agricultural circuits. Reed is a virtuous plant that enables wetlands to absorb water during floods and release it during droughts.
