Incorporating Polymateria’s technology, Manupackaging has developed Manunature® BD, a new 100% safe biodegradable superpower stretch film and stretch hood that, after the typical service life of 12 months, becomes biodegradable in the open terrestrial environment using Polymateria’s Biotransformation process.

Polymateria, has developed this groundbreaking innovation that aims to tackle global plastic pollution. The company has come up with a technology that alters the properties of plastic to make it biodegra- dable and recyclable at the same time. With the potential to revolutionize the fight against plastic waste globally, this ‘biotransformation’ technology is nothing but a proprietary additive that can break down plastics safely if they escape into the environment.
Manunature® BD is approved as biodegradable according to the BSI PAS 9017:2020 criteria, the world’s first standard which ensures that polyolefin plastics fully biodegrade in the open terrestrial environment without creating any microplastics or harm to nature. Polymateria’s mission is to advance science to help nature deal with the plastic pollution crisis. Based at, Imperial College London, they are the first company in the world to prove scientifically that you can take fugitive or unmanaged plastic waste and return them to nature without creating microplastics, harming the natural environment or interfering with recycling streams at scale. Polymateria was named as a World Economic Forum Tech Pioneer in 2021 on account of the company’s contribution to circularity and tackling plastic pollution. Commenting on the partnership, Pierfranco Di Gioia, CEO of M Stretch, the holding company of Manupackaging Group, said: thanks to a common vision inspired by sustainability and ESG principles, Polymateria and Manupackaging are a perfect match. The increasing demand for sustainable packaging solutions across all industries encouraged us to further develop eco-stretch films, which completely eliminate micro-plastics issues. After a thorough search for the best solution, we are excited to have chosen Polymateria as the ideal partner to implement this critical aspect of our ESG strategy.
