Who we are
A privately owned advanced technology company
Polymateria is a British business developing a new standard in biodegradable and compostable plastics. Our scientists have created a breakthrough, proprietary formulation for plastics - called Biotransformation - that makes it possible.
Solutions proposed in the past have been ineffective and don't go far enough - we exist to go further.
Food contact-approved single use packaging
Polyethylene and polypropylene product applications
Long service life (6 months - 3 years)
Polymateria’s Cycle+ brings advanced biodegradation technology to different types of plastic, without affecting its recyclability within the product’s use life.
Short service life (<6 months)
Polymateria’s DegrAid product is designed specifically for end of life situations where recycling is not an option, e.g sealant films.
