Research&Innovation at the service of a successful industrial business

We have always invested in research and development to improve the performance and environmental impact of our processes and products continuously.

With roots in material science and backed by increasing investment in research and innovation, we have scaled up 13 proprietary technologies — four of which are unique — for producing bioplastics and bioproducts. This has been made possible through the integration of multiple disciplines, including bioplastics, biotechnology, agronomy, organic chemistry and product ecology.

Our research centres, located in Novara, Piana di Monte Verna (CE) and Porto Torres (Matrìca Research Centre — a joint venture between Novamont and Versalis), boast a wide range of skills and specialisations and are equipped with facilities ranging from laboratory-scale setups to cutting-edge pilot plants.

We actively participate in research, development, and innovation projects in collaboration with leading Italian and international organisations in the fields of the bioeconomy and the circular economy. Our goal is to foster strategic, long-term partnerships between the research community, industry, agriculture and institutions.

We are among the members of the Bio-based Industries Consortium - BIC, the private partner within the Circular Bio-Based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU)​ and the key acceleration tool for the circular bioeconomy in Europe.
